Title: SUSPENSION CONTROL: AIR SUSPENSION SYSTEM (w/o AVS): DESCRIPTION (2008 Sequoia)

DTC

C1747

Leveling Solenoid Valve Circuit Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

The suspension control ECU opens the leveling solenoid valve (No. 2 height control valve) to lead the compressed air to the height control cylinder (pneumatic cylinder) and to raise the vehicle height.

The No. 2 height control valve consists of a leveling solenoid valve and a gate solenoid valve.

The leveling solenoid valve opens and closes the passage between the compressor and the height control cylinder (pneumatic cylinder).

DTC Code

Detection Condition

Trouble Area

C1747

When either of the following is detected:

  • With the height control valve inactivated, an open signal of the height control valve is detected for 1 second or more.
  • With the height control valve activated, a short signal of the valve is detected 8 times successively.
  • Wire harness or connector
  • Leveling solenoid valve (No. 2 height control valve)
  • Suspension control ECU

HINT:

  • Once the ECU stores DTC C1747 in the memory, the vehicle height control is suspended until a normal signal is input to the ECU from the height control solenoid valves. However, control is resumed if the ignition switch is turned off, then to ON again.
  • Malfunction in the leveling solenoid valve:

    The height control operation is suspended, and the height control indicator light does not change by operating the height control switch.
