Diagnostic Fault Information
Perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle prior to using this diagnostic procedure.
Circuit/System Description
The electronic suspension control module (ESC) module commands variable levels of pulse width modulated current to each damper in response to rough road, or abrupt steering maneuver driving conditions. The ESC module continuously compares each dampers command state with the state of their feedback circuits to ensure they agree.
Conditions for Running the DTC
Ignition ON for 30 seconds.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The damper coil or the circuits to the coil are shorted to ground, shorted to voltage, or open for 3 consecutive ignition ON cycles.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
| • | The instrument panel cluster (IPC) displays the SERVICE SUSPENSION SYSTEM message. |
| • | If the DTC symptom 01 is stored, the electronic suspension control (ESC) system is disabled. |
| • | If the DTC symptom 02 or 04 is stored, the suspect damper is disabled. |
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | A current DTC will clear on the next consecutive malfunction-free ignition cycle. |
| • | A history DTC will clear after 50 consecutive malfunction-free ignition cycles. |
Diagnostic Aids
| • | Before proceeding with the diagnostics, ensure the electrical harness connector at the suspect damper is fully engaged by pushing the harness connector toward the damper. If an audible click is heard, or substantial engagement travel is noted, ensure the remaining damper connectors are fully engaged as well. |
| • | When the scan tool is used to clear the DTC, the ESCMs ignition cycle counter is disabled for the remainder of the ignition cycle. This allows the DTC to set upon initial malfunction detection. Once the ignition is cycled the counter resets to 3. |
| • | The scan tool can be sued to command the suspect damper On and Off while actuating the suspension and noticing an increase and decrease in damping control. |

Circuit/System Verification
Ignition ON, command the damper actuator ON and OFF while jouncing the vehicle in the front and rear. Suspension should change stiffness when commanded between the ON and OFF state.
Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the applicable suspension damper.
- Test for less than 1.0 ohm of resistance between the low reference circuit terminal and ground.
- Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal and the ground circuit terminal.
- Command the applicable damper ON and OFF with a scan tool. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the applicable suspension damper.
| ⇒ | If greater than 1.0 ohm, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. |
| ⇒ | If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ESC module. |
| ⇒ | If the test lamp is always OFF, test for a short to ground or an open/high resistance on the control circuit. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ESC module. |
Component Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the applicable suspension damper.
- Test for less than 2 ohms of resistance between the control circuit terminal and the low reference circuit terminal of the applicable suspension damper.
| ⇒ | If not within the specified range, replace the applicable suspension damper. |
