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 No.

C1747/47

Leveling Solenoid Valve Circuit

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

Indicated
Tip:

  • 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 engine switch is turned off and then on (IG) 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.

Tip:

If DTC C1782/82 is output at the same time as C1747/47, perform the inspection necessary for DTC C1782/82 first (Click here).

PROCEDURE

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

    1. Turn the engine switch off.

    2. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    3. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

    4. Turn the intelligent tester on.

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