The electronic suspension control (ESC) module performs internal checks on the software calibrations contained in the EEPROM to ensure valid operation.
Upon key on and reset.
The ESC module detects internal problems with software calibrations.
• | Disable all functions, Rear Leveling and ESC. |
• | The SERVICE RIDE CONTROL message will be displayed. |
• | Stores a DTC C0551 in the ESC module memory. |
• | Using the scan tool. |
• | A history DTC will clear after 100 consecutive ignition cycles if the condition for the malfunction is no longer present. |
• | Program the ESC module twice before replacement and cycle the ignition off and on to see if the DTC C0551 resets. |
• | The replacement ESC module must be programmed when replacement is necessary. If the ESC module is not programmed after replacement, DTC C0551 is stored in the ESC module memory and will not clear until the module is programmed. |
