Circuit Description
The front suspension position sensor provides the headlamp level controller with front suspension position information. The sensor is permanently grounded and has voltage supplied with the ignition in the ON or CRANK position. The sensor arm is connected to the control arm of the front suspension. As the vehicle travels, the suspension compresses and rebounds moving the suspension position sensor arm. This causes the signal output of the sensor to change. The headlamp level controller compares this information with the rear suspension position sensor information and adjusts the headlamp leveling as needed.
Conditions for Running the DTC
The headlamp leveling module performs this diagnostic test mode every 3.2 millisecond when the following conditions are met:
| • | The ignition is in the ON or CRANK position. |
| • | The headlamps are ON. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
DTC B3410 will set when one of the following conditions occur:
B3410 02
The front suspension position sensor voltage reference is less than 4.49 volts for 9.6 milliseconds.
B3410 03
The front suspension position sensor voltage reference is less than 0.5 volt for 9.6 milliseconds.
B3410 07
The front suspension position sensor voltage reference is 4.5 volts or greater for 9.6 milliseconds.
Actions Taken When the DTC Sets
B3410 02
| • | The headlamp level controller will turn OFF power to the front suspension position sensor and wait 10 seconds before reapplying power to the sensor. If the reference voltage is less than 4.49 volts, the headlamp level controller will conclude a front suspension position sensor failure has occurred. |
| • | The headlamp level controller will disable the front suspension position sensor. |
B3410 03 and B3410 07
| • | If the headlamp leveling actuator has positioned the headlamps above the nominal level, the headlamp level controller will drive the headlamps to the nominal setting. |
| • | If the headlamp leveling actuator has positioned the headlamps below the nominal level, the headlamp level controller will disable the headlamp leveling actuator and maintain the lower than nominal level. |
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists. |
| • | A history DTC will clear once 40 consecutive malfunction free ignition cycles have occurred. |
Diagnostic Aids
Important: When one of the suspension position sensor voltage reference or sensor signal circuits are shorted to ground, it may not possible to determine which suspension position sensor voltage reference or sensor signal circuits, front or rear, has failed. If this condition occurs, all suspension position sensor voltage reference and sensor signal circuits will have to be tested for a short to ground.

Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the LF suspension position sensor.
- Ignition OFF, verify that a test lamp illuminates between B+ and the low reference circuit terminal C.
- Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 volts between the 5-volt reference circuit terminal A and ground.
- Verify the scan tool Front Leveling Position Sensor parameter is less than 0.5 volts.
- Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal B and the 5-volt reference circuit terminal A. Verify the scan tool Front Leveling Position Sensor parameter is greater than 4.49 volts.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the LF suspension position sensor.
| ⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. |
| ⇒ | If less than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the headlamp leveling module. |
| ⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the headlamp leveling module. |
| ⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit terminal B for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the headlamp leveling module. |
| ⇒ | If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the headlamp leveling module. |
