Active Damper System (ADS) Struts Bypass
  • When converting ADS struts to regular struts (usually much cheaper), place 2ā„¦ 10W resistor inside each connector for ADS front struts to bypass the now missing electrical damper part.
    • Fixes the ā€œ7-9 active damper control unit internal circuit malfunctionā€ code in the ADS unit and light on a dash (e.g. 2010 MDX)

Air Suspension
  • C2212 ECU in Plant Mode
    1. System is in in-plant mode. Use a scan tool to perform ā€œFill From Reservoir Routineā€. Choose any one shock to fill. This should take it out of the in-plant mode.
    2. Clear the C2212-00 code. Now the air suspension should raise the vehicle after the engine is started. Keep all doors and lift gate closed.

Suspension Level Calibration Procedure

  • Note:Ā  You need to have +-3mm precisionĀ (use a metric ruler).
    • If it will not go through calibration due to measurements errors, computer will store C1A00-control module fault and will be there until you go through calibration successfully.
  • Make sure that there are no codes stored in Ride Leveling Module.
  • Set a hight level to a ā€˜normal modeā€™ (middle indicator ON, others OFF)
  • Start a vehicle for 5 mins to make sure that air pump will pressurize the system to the required level.
  • Enter calibration through ā€˜Service Functionsā€™.
    • Once procedure has been started, it has to be completed since it clears old values from the computerā€™s memory.
  • Computer will try to set a vehicle to specific height. Wait for 1-2 mins for it to complete.
  • Enter measurements in mm from the center of the wheelĀ  to a fender arc
    • 378mm < measurement < 597mm
    • Land Rover Suspension Calibration Measurements
  • After 4 measurements has been entered, car will randomly change its height for you to take a second set of measurements.
  • After this step has been passed successfully, calibration should be complete.
