Fail-safeINFOID:0000000006256054
If malfunction is detected, control stops.
The system may enter fail-safe mode under certain condi tions (for example, over-laden conditions) when elec-
tronic circuit is normal.
In this case, always check that the system re turns to normal by starting engine after unloading load.

STANDARD VEHICL E HEIGHT SETTING
DescriptionINFOID:0000000006256060
Air levelizer control module enables precise control, by acquiring memorized standard vehicle height and sig-
nal (vehicle height) from vehicle height sensor. For this reason, always set standard vehicle height after per-
forming the following operations.
 Removal and installation or replacement of vehicle height sensor
 Replacement of air levelizer control module
Work ProcedureINFOID:0000000006256061
1.CLEAR STANDARD VEHICLE HEIGHT
With CONSULT-III
1. Lift up the vehicle. CAUTION:
Check that tires never contact the ground.
2. Start the engine.
3. Select “COMPRESSOR” in “Active Test” in “E-SUS”.
4. Touch “ON” and wait 60 seconds or more.
5. Touch “OFF”.
6. Select “CLEAR HEIGHT INI” in “Work Support” in “E-SUS”.
7. Touch “Start”.
8. Touch “Clear”. NOTE:
CONSULT-III continues indicating "EXECUTING". The completion of the standard vehicle height erasing
can be checked by the CK SUSP indicator lamp ON condition.
Does CK SUSP indicator lamp turn ON?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Perform step 1 again.
2.ADJUST STANDARD VEHICLE HEIGHT
With CONSULT-III
1. Select “ADJUST HEIGHT INI” in “Work Support” in “E-SUS”.
2. Touch “Start”.
3. Touch “Initial 1”. NOTE:
CONSULT-III continues indicating "EXECUTING". T he completion of the standard vehicle height adjust-
ment can be checked by the CK SUSP indicator lamp OFF condition.
Does CK SUSP indicator lamp turn OFF?
YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> Perform step 1 again.
3. ADJUST VEHICLE HEIGHT
With CONSULT-III
1. Lift down the vehicle. CAUTION:
Check that the lift is fully lowered.
2. Select “STANDARD HEIGHT LEVEL” in “Work Support” in “E-SUS”.
3. Touch “Start”.
4. Touch “Revert” and wait 120 seconds or more.
5. Although CONSULT-III continues indicating "EXECUTIN G", select “VHCL HGT CNVSN VL” in “Data Mon-
itor” in “E-SUS”.
Is value within
−15 – 15 mm?
YES >> GO TO 4.
NO >> Perform step 1 again.
4.CHECK DTC
With CONSULT-III

U1000 CAN COMM CIRCUIT
DescriptionINFOID:0000000006256082
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real-time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communica tion speed and excellent malfunction detection ability.
Many electronic control units are equipped onto a vehicl e, and each control unit shares information and links
with other control units during operation (not independently ). In CAN communication, control units are con-
nected with 2 communication lines (CAN-H line, CAN-L li ne) allowing a high rate of information transmission
with less wiring. Each control unit transmits/recei ves data but selectively reads required data only.

DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
1.PRECONDITIONING
If “DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE” is previously c onducted, always turn ignition switch OFF and wait at
least 10 seconds before performing the next test.
>> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK DTC DETECTION
With CONSULT-III
1. Start the engine.
2. Run engine for at least 2 cons ecutive seconds at idle speed.
3. Perform “Self Diagnostic Results” in “E-SUS”.
Is
“U1000” detected?
YES >> Go to SCS-87, "Diagnosis Procedure".
NO >> INSPECTION END
