10.INSPECT FOR CLOGGED AIR TUBE
a. Check the air tube visually for a clog or damage (see ON
-VEHICLE INSPECTION ).
OK:
Air tube is not clogged or damaged.
NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE AIR TUBE
OK: REPLACE SUSPENSION CONTROL ECU (SEE REPLACEMENT
)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The signal from the suspension control ECU operates the AIR SUS relay and the height control compressor
motor starts.
The height control compressor motor operates until the targeted vehicle height is reached. Then the height
control sensor sub-assy sends the signal to the suspension control ECU, and stops the height control compressor
motor.

REPLACEMENT
- HEIGHT CONTROL COMPRESSOR ASSY , REPLACEMENT -
HEIGHT CONTROL VALVE SUB
-ASSY NO.1 , REPLACEMENT - HEIGHT CONTROL
VALVE SUB-ASSY NO.2 ).
Suspension control ECU malfunction (see REPLACEMENT ).

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
This circuit is necessary for the stereo component amplifier assy for the ASL (Auto Sound Leveliser). Speed
signals are received from the combination meter.
The ASL function automatically adjusts the sound data in order to enable to hear the clear audio sound even
when the vehicle noise is increased (as vehicle noise increased, the volume is turned up etc.)
Standard System: Using speed signals and a microphone for the ASL built into the stereo component amplifier
assy.
Mark Levinson System: Using speed signals.

TABLE
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
This circuit sends the signal to the stereo component amplifier to mute the noise. Because of that, the noise
produced by changing the sound source ceases.
In addition, this circuit is used to mute the sound when the navigation system performs voice guide.
If there is an open in the circuit, noise can be heard from the speaker when changing the sound source.
When the vehicle is equipped with the navigation system, audio sound keeps coming out from the speaker on
the driver's side while the voice navigation is in operation.
If there is a short in the circuit, even though the stereo component amplifier assy is normal, no sound or only
extremely small sound can be produced.
