DTC C1741/41: Air Suspension Relay Circuit: Procedure

  1. RECONFIRM DTC 
    1. Check DTCs. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR .
      1. Confirm if the DTC C1761/61 and/or C1774/74 is recorded.

        OK

        DTC C1761/61 and/or C1774/74 is not output.

        HINT: 

        If either DTCC1761/61 (ECU malfunction). Refer to DTC C1761/61: ECU Malfunction  or C1774/74 (power source circuit). Refer to DTC C1774/74: Power Source Circuit  is displayed, carry out the necessary inspection. If they are output at the same time, carry out the necessary inspection for DTC C1774/74 first.

    NG → REPAIR CIRCUIT INDICATED BY OUTPUT CODE 

    OK: Go to next step 

  2. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM 

    HINT: 

    When not using Techstream, go to step  3.

    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position, and push the Techstream main switch ON.
    3. Select the item below in the ACTIVE TEST, and operate it with the Techstream.

      Air suspension

      Item Vehicle Condition / Test Details Diagnostic Note
      Motor Relay AIR SUS relay / ON or OFF -
    4. Check the operation sound of the AIR SUS relay when operating it with the Techstream.

      OK

      The operation sound of the AIR SUS relay can be head.

    NG → Go to next step 

    OK → REPLACE SUSPENSION CONTROL ECU 

  3. INSPECT AIR SUS RELAY 
    1. Remove the AIR SUS relay from the engine room R/B.

    2. Measure the resistance according to the values in the table below.

      Standard resistance

      Tester Connection Specified Condition
      3 - 5 10 kΩ higher
      Below 1 Ω
      (When battery voltage is applied to terminals 1 and 2)

    NG → REPLACE AIR SUS RELAY 

    OK: Go to next step 

  4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SUSPENSION CONTROL ECU - AIR SUS RELAY) 
    1. Disconnect the suspension control ECU S14 connector.

    2. Measure the resistance according to the values in the table below.

      Standard resistance

      Tester Connection Specified Condition
      S14-18 (RC) - 1 (for AIR SUS relay) Below 1 Ω
      S14-18 (RC) - Body ground 10 kΩ or higher

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  5. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (AIR SUS RELAY - BODY GROUND) 
    1. Measure the resistance according to the values in the table below.
