Suspension help with codes
Advice needed: My Old Bus has developed a suspension fault, the first in 220,000+ miles. The yellow warning light has now come on giving me a message saying Access Height Only, however, I can lift and lower it if I switch the ignition on and off.

I had this pressure sensor fault some years ago now and it turned out not to be the pressure sensor but a broken wire at the connector behind NSF wheel.Stu

Also I see you have C1A20 which I often caused by a hairline crack in the air dryer cap.Stu

The first thing to do is clear all the faults and see which one(s) comes back.Simon.

What are you using to read the faults? Might be worth monitoring the gallery pressure to see how it fluctuates? There are some examples of expected gallery pressure in this post: https://disco3.co.uk/forum/help-suspension...21291.html2016 Skoda Octavia VRS Estate

Thanks chaps. Local indi read the codes. I have a IIDBT so will clear the codes and see what pops up. I'll also have a look for the broken wire and cracked dryer.New Defender L663 110 SE (known as Noddy!)
