KINETIC DYNAMIC SUSPENSION SYSTEM ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION

PROCEDURE

  1. INSPECT INDICATOR LIGHT

    1. Check that the KDSS indicator light comes on for 2 seconds.

      If the indicator check result is not normal, proceed to troubleshooting for the Problem Symptoms Table (Click here).

  2. INSPECT FLUID PRESSURE

    Note:

    • Perform the inspection on a level surface.

    • Make sure that the wheels are on the ground and facing straight ahead.

    • Perform the inspection with the vehicle load completely on the suspension.

    Tip:

    • Perform this step with the fuel tank full.

    • If there are any parts installed to the vehicle which place any unbalanced load on the left or right side of the vehicle, remove them.

    1. Turn the engine switch off.
