System Communication
The active damper system has an active damper control unit, four quick-reacting damper units with internal damper coil, three vertical acceleration sensors, four suspension stroke sensors, an integrated dynamics system switch, and an active damper system indicator. In addition, the active damper system receives signals from the VSA system and the PCM.
The active damper control unit performs an arithmetical operation from various vehicle conditions pitching, roll, bump, vehicle speed, and driver's mode selection, then selects the most suitable damping characteristics or setting.
