DTC2 Actuator Coil Over Current
Circuit Description
The A, B, C, and D are the actuator motor coil terminals.
DC 12V driving voltage is applied between terminals A
and C and terminals B and D so that the shock absorber
oil valves are rotated at every 7.5
step feed.
Diagnostic Aids

Inspect the wiring for poor electrical connections
between the control unit 24 way connector and the
actuator connectors. Look for possible bent, backed
out, deformed, or damaged terminals. Check for
weak terminal tension as well.
Also check for a chafed wire that could short to bare
metal or other wiring. Inspect for a broken wire inside
the insulation.

When diagnosing for a possible intermittent short or
open condition, move the wiring harness while
observing test equipment for a change.

DTC3 Actuator Coil/Position Sensor Open Circuit or Short
Circuit Description
The A, B, C, and D are the actuator motor coil terminals.
DC 12V driving voltage is applied between terminals A
and C and terminals B and D so that the shock absorber
oil valves are rotated at every 7.5
step feed.
The PSW is actuator position signal and detects relative
angles between the piston±rod and the control-rod. The
actuator outputs the PSW to the control unit.
Diagnostic Aids

Inspect the wiring for poor electrical connections
between the control unit 16 way connector and the
actuator connectors. Look for possible bent, backed
out, deformed, or damaged terminals. Check for
weak terminal tension as well.
Also check for a chafed wire that could short to bare
metal or other wiring. Inspect for a broken wire inside
the insulation.

DTC4 G-Sensor Open Circuit or Short
Circuit Description
The G-sensor sends the voltage (Vout) corresponding to
the vehicle vertical gravity to the control unit.
The control unit supplies DC 5V power (Vcc) to each
G-sensor.
The control unit watches the G-sensor operation through
Vcc signal.
Diagnostic Aids

Inspect the wiring for poor electrical connections
between the control unit connectors and the actuator
connectors. Look for possible bent, backed out,
deformed, or damaged terminals. Check for weak
terminal tension as well.
Also check for a chafed wire that could short to bare
metal or other wiring. Inspect for a broken wire inside
the insulation.

When diagnosing for a possible intermittent short or

DTC5 Vehicle Speed Sensor Open Circuit or Short
Circuit Description
Output speed information is provided to the control unit by
the vehicle speed sensor. The vehicle speed sensor
produces a pulsing AC voltage. The AC voltage level and
number of pulses increases as the speed of the vehicle
increases. The control unit then converts the pulsing
voltage to vehicle speed.
Diagnostic Aids

Inspect the wiring for poor electrical connections
between the control unit 48 way connector and the
speed sensor connectors. Look for possible bent,
backed out, deformed, or damaged terminals. Check
for weak terminal tension as well.
Also check for a chafed wire that could short to bare
metal or other wiring. Inspect for a broken wire inside
the insulation.

DTC6 Stop Lamp Switch Open Circuit or Short
Circuit Description
The brake switch is used to indicate brake pedal status.
The normally opened brake switch signal voltage circuit is
opened.
Brake switch supplies a B+ signal on circuit RED to the
control unit when the brakes are applied. The control unit
uses this signal to work dive control when the brakes are
applied.
Diagnostic Aids

Inspect the wiring for poor electrical connections at
the control unit and brake switch. Look for possible
bent, backed out, deformed or damaged terminals.
Check for weak terminal tension as well. Also check
for a chafed wire that could short to bare metal or
other wiring. Inspect for a broken wire inside the
insulation.

When diagnosing for a possible intermittent short or
open condition, move the wiring harness while
observing test equipment for a change.

Check customer driving habits and/or unusual driving
conditions (i.e. stop and go, highway).

Check brake switch for proper mounting and
