DTC C1711: Front Height Control Sensor RH Circuit Malfunction; DTC C1712: Front Height Control Sensor LH Circuit Malfunction; DTC C1713: Rear Height Control Sensor RH Circuit Malfunction; DTC C1714: Rear Height Control Sensor LH Circuit Malfunction: Procedure
- INSPECT HEIGHT CONTROL SENSOR
- Check the front height control sensor.
- Remove the front height control sensor RH or front height control sensor LH. Refer to REMOVAL
.NOTE:
Do not drop the height control sensor. If it is dropped, replace it with a new one.
- Connect 3 1.5 V dry cell batteries in series.
- Connect the positive (+) end of the batteries to terminal 3 (SHB) of the height control sensor and the negative (-) end of the batteries to terminal 1 (SHG). While slowly moving the sensor's link up and down, measure the voltage between terminal 2 (SHFR*1 or SHFL*2) and terminal 1 (SHG).
HINT:
*1: for RH
*2: for LH
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard voltage
FOR RHTester Connection Condition Specified Condition 2 (SHFR) - 1 (SHG) Max. HI Approx. 4.1 V Normal Approx. 2.25 V Min. LO Approx. 0.45 V FOR LHTester Connection Condition Specified Condition 2 (SHFL) - 1 (SHG) Max. HI Approx. 4.1 V Normal Approx. 2.25 V Min. LO Approx. 0.45 V NOTE:Do not apply a voltage of more than 6 V.
- Remove the front height control sensor RH or front height control sensor LH. Refer to REMOVAL
.
- Check the rear height control sensor.
- Remove the rear height control sensor RH or rear height control sensor LH. Refer to REMOVAL
.NOTE:
Do not drop the height control sensor. If it is dropped, replace it with a new one.
- Connect 3 1.5 V dry cell batteries in series.
- Connect the positive (+) end of the batteries to terminal 3 (SHB) of the height control sensor and the negative (-) end of the batteries to terminal 1 (SHG). While slowly moving the sensor's link up and down, measure the voltage between terminal 2 (SHRR*1 or SHRL*2) and terminal 1 (SHG).
HINT:
*1: for RH
*2: for LH
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard voltage
FOR RHTester Connection Condition Specified Condition 2 (SHRR) - 1 (SHG) Max. HI Approx. 4.1 V Normal Approx. 2.25 V Min. LO Approx. 0.45 V FOR LHTester Connection Condition Specified Condition 2 (SHRL) - 1 (SHG) Max. HI Approx. 4.1 V Normal Approx. 2.25 V Min. LO Approx. 0.45 V NOTE:Do not apply a voltage of more than 6 V.
RESULTResult Proceed to OK A Front height control sensor RH malfunction B Front height control sensor LH malfunction C Rear height control sensor RH malfunction D Rear height control sensor LH malfunction E - Remove the rear height control sensor RH or rear height control sensor LH.
