Air Suspension Sensors

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2004 Oldsmobile Bravada, 2004 GMC Envoy XUV, 2004 GMC Envoy XL, 2004 GMC Envoy, and 2004 Chevrolet TrailBlazer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The air suspension sensor arm is attached to an armature that rotates inside a coil. The inductance of the coil, not the resistance, changes dependent on the position of the armature in the coil. The air suspension module determines the angle of the sensor arm by sending a pulse width modulated supply voltage through the coil and measuring the response time. The sensors must be calibrated to the correct D height and are not adjustable.
