C1801 VEHICLE HEIGHT SENSOR
DescriptionINFOID:0000000003772312
The vehicle height sensor operates on a 5 volt referenc e signal from the suspension control unit. The suspen-
sion control unit also provides ground to the height sensor. Depending on vehicle height, the height sensor
signal should have between 0.2V and 4.8V.

C1802 COMPRESSOR RELAY
DescriptionINFOID:0000000003772315
The compressor motor relay is controlled by the suspension control unit. The suspension control unit supplies
voltage to the coil side of the relay to activate it. T he compressor motor relay, when activated, supplies power
to the suspension air compressor.

Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000003772317
1.CHECK COMPRESSOR MOTOR RELAY OPERATION
CAUTION:
The "COMPRESSOR" active test will remain ON until it is turned off using CONSULT-III. Allowing the
compressor to run for an extended period of time may cause damage to the air levelizer system com-
ponents due to excessive air pressure.
CONSULT-III
1. Turn ignition ON.
2. Select "COMPRESSOR" of AIR LEVELIZER active test items.
3. While operating test item, check that the suspension air compressor turns ON.
Does the suspension air compressor operate properly?
YES >> Compressor motor relay and suspension air compressor are operating normally.
NO >> Refer to SCS-20, "
Diagnosis Procedure".

C1803 EXHAUST SOLENOID
DescriptionINFOID:0000000003772318
The exhaust valve solenoid controls the vent function of the suspensi on control system. The exhaust valve
solenoid is built into the suspension air compressor. The suspension control unit supplies voltage to the
exhaust valve solenoid to activate it.

Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000003772320
1.CHECK EXHAUST SOLENOID OPERATION
CAUTION:
While operating this active test, the suspension control system wil l vent air pressure and the vehicle
ride height will lower. Ensure th e area around the vehicle is free from obstructions before beginning
test.
CONSULT-III
1. Ensure the suspension control system has air pressure and is not drooping in the rear.
2. Select "EXHAUST SOLENOID" of AIR LEVELIZER active test items.
3. While operating test item, check that the exhaust va lve solenoid opens to vent air from the system. The
vehicle should lower when the exhaust valve solenoid is activated.
Does the system vent properly?
YES >> Exhaust valve solenoid is operating normally.
NO >> Refer to SCS-23, "
