AIR SUSPENSION SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:C1747/47

DTC Code DTC Name
C1747/47 Leveling Solenoid Valve Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The suspension control ECU opens the leveling solenoid valve (No. 2 height control valve) to allow compressed air to flow into the height control cylinder (pneumatic cylinder) and raise the vehicle height.

The No. 2 height control valve consists of a leveling solenoid valve and a gate solenoid valve.

The leveling solenoid valve opens and closes the passage between the height control compressor and the height control cylinder (pneumatic cylinder).

DTC Code DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
C1747/47

Either condition is met:


  • With the height control valve inactivated, an open signal of the height control valve is detected for 1 second or more.

  • With the height control valve activated, a short signal of the valve is detected 8 times successively.

  • Harness or connector

  • Leveling solenoid valve (No. 2 height control valve)

  • Suspension control ECU

Tech Tips


  • Once the suspension control ECU stores DTC C1747/47 in memory, vehicle height control is suspended until a normal signal is input to the suspension control ECU from the height control valves. However, control is resumed if the ignition switch is turned off and then to ON again.

  • Malfunction in the leveling solenoid valve:

    Height control operation is suspended and the height control indicator does not change by operating the height control switch.

PROCEDURE


  1. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (REAR LEVELING SOLENOID)


    1. Turn the ignition switch off.

    2. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    3. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    4. Turn the intelligent tester on.

    5. Enter the following menus: Chassis / Air suspension / Active Test.

      • The operating sound of the solenoid (clicking sound) can be heard.

      • When the Active Test is performed, Rear Leveling Solenoid in the Data List changes between ON and OFF accordingly.
      OK
      Operation of solenoid (clicking sound) can be heard.

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (LEVELING SOLENOID VALVE - SUSPENSION CONTROL ECU)


    1. Disconnect the S7 leveling solenoid valve connector.

    2. Disconnect the A14 suspension control ECU connector.

    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      S7-3 (RH+) - A14-16 (SLRR) Always Below 1 Ω
      S7-3 (RH+) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      S7-2 (E) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω

    NG

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

    OK

  3. INSPECT NO. 2 HEIGHT CONTROL VALVE (LEVELING SOLENOID VALVE)


    1. Turn the ignition switch off.

    2. Remove the No. 2 height control valve Click here.

      (No. 2 Height Control Valve)

      Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      2 (E) - 3 (RH+) 20°C (68°F) 10 to 14 Ω

    4. Connect the positive (+) lead of the battery to terminal 3 (RH+) and the negative (-) lead to terminal 2 (E) of the solenoid valve connector. Then check that the valve makes an operating sound.

      OK
      Operation of solenoid (clicking sound) can be heard.

    OK
