WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Mazda CX-5. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Step Inspection Action
1 INSPECT AUTO LEVELING SENSOR CONNECTOR CONDITION 
Yes Go to the next step.
    No Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 7.
2 INSPECT AFS CONTROL MODULE CONNECTOR CONDITION 
  • Disconnect the AFS control module connector.
  • Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection.
  • Is the connector normal?
Yes Go to the next step.
    No Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 7.
3 INSPECT AUTO LEVELING SENSOR CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND 
  • Verify that the auto leveling sensor and AFS control module connectors are disconnected.
  • Inspect for continuity between the following terminals (vehicle wiring harness side) and body ground.
    • Auto leveling sensor terminal C
    • Auto leveling sensor terminal B
    • Auto leveling sensor terminal A
  • Is there continuity?
Yes Repair or replace the wiring harness which is shorted to ground, then go to Step 7.
    No Go to the next step.
4 INSPECT AUTO LEVELING SENSOR CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO POWER SUPPLY 
  • Verify that the auto leveling sensor and AFS control module connectors are disconnected.
  • Connect the negative battery cable.

    (See NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION [SKYACTIV-G 2.0, SKYACTIV-G 2.5] .)

  • Switch the ignition ON (engine off or on).
  • Measure the voltage at the following terminals (vehicle wiring harness side).
    • Auto leveling sensor terminal C
    • Auto leveling sensor terminal B
    • Auto leveling sensor terminal A
  • Is the voltage 0 V?
Yes Go to the next step.
    No Repair or replace the wiring harness which is shorted to power supply, then go to Step 7.
5 INSPECT AUTO LEVELING SENSOR CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT 
  • Verify that the auto leveling sensor and AFS control module connectors are disconnected.
  • Switch the ignition to off.
  • Disconnect the negative battery cable.

    (See NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION [SKYACTIV-G 2.0, SKYACTIV-G 2.5] .)

  • Inspect the wiring harness between the following terminals (vehicle wiring harness side) for continuity.
    • AFS control module terminal I and auto leveling sensor terminal C
    • AFS control module terminal K and auto leveling sensor terminal B
    • AFS control module terminal C and auto leveling sensor terminal A
  • Is there continuity?
Yes Go to the next step.
    No Repair or replace the wiring harness which has an open circuit, then go to Step 7.
6 INSPECT AUTO LEVELING SENSOR 
Yes Go to the next step.
    No Replace the auto leveling sensor, then go to the next step.
(See AUTO LEVELING SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
7 VERIFY THAT REPAIRS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED 
Yes Repeat the inspection from Step 1.
  • If the malfunction recurs, replace the AFS control module, then go to the next step.

(See ADAPTIVE FRONT LIGHTING SYSTEM (AFS) CONTROL MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
    No Go to the next step.
8 VERIFY IF OTHER DTCs DISPLAYED 
  • Are any other DTCs displayed?
Yes Repair the malfunctioning part according to the applicable DTC troubleshooting.
(See DTC TABLE [ADAPTIVE FRONT LIGHTING SYSTEM (AFS)] .)
