DTC 2-C: Right-Rear/Left-Rear Suspension Stroke Sensor Incorrect Correlation

  1. Press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode.
  2. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
  3. Test-drive the vehicle at 19 mph (30 km/h) or more for at least 1 minute.
  4. Check for DTCs with the HDS.

    Is DTC 2-C indicated? 

    YES  -Go to step 5.

    NO  -Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Refer to INTERMITTENT FAILURES TROUBLESHOOTING  .

  5. Press the engine start/stop button to select the OFF mode.
  6. Check that the right-rear and left-rear suspension stroke sensors are properly mounted (see SUSPENSION STROKE SENSOR REPLACEMENT  ), and check for bent or damaged sensor links.

    Are they OK? 

    YES  -Go to step 7.

    NO  -Reinstall or replace the appropriate suspension stroke sensor, or linkage (see SUSPENSION STROKE SENSOR REPLACEMENT  ).

  7. Remove the right-rear and left-rear suspension stroke sensors (see SUSPENSION STROKE SENSOR REPLACEMENT  ). Do not disconnect the sensor connector.
  8. Start the engine, and wait 5 seconds.
  9. Check the SUS STROKE_S VOLTAGE (RR), or (LR) in the ACTIVE DAMPER SYSTEM DATA LIST with the HDS while moving the suspension stroke sensor arm through a complete stroke. Compare the voltage/rotation angle between the chart and the measurements.
    NOTE: The voltage should increase (decrease) within 90 degrees of the sensor arm rotation from the first voltage change point.

    Is the voltage as specified? 

    YES  -Replace the active damper control unit (see ACTIVE DAMPER CONTROL UNIT REPLACEMENT  ).

    NO  -Replace the appropriate suspension stroke sensor (see VERTICAL ACCELERATION SENSOR REPLACEMENT  ).
