iil device multiple suspension errors
Hi, ive recently bought the gap diagnostic tool as im getting a red light for suspension intermittently, im getting error codes for all 4 suspension sides. Does this mean that its something other than the ride height sensors causing errors to come from all 4 corners?

Hi, yes I've cleared faults. Should I just wait till I get the red light fault again and see what code is showing ?

Thks , so as you’ve cleared all the codes, would start ur engine up and do a full scan of all ur ecus please
If the red light doesn’t come up try raising / lowering ur suspension to see if it appears , then if it does do another scan , then either email them to urself or take a screenshot and post them here please
Would then at least see what happens with an overnight charge , can cross that bridge when it comes to it if the battery fails to take a charge , normal life of a battery on these is around 5 x years
Going on from this it may just be bad connections behind ur front passengers side wheel arch liner, but if u don’t mind me saying always best to go through it step by step, but there plenty of us to always help and guide u through the faults
Hope that helps

Hi
Many thks, looks better now without all those codes, lol
Personally would first check ur height is correct , by putting the suspension into normal ride height , then measure from the centre of the wheel to the bottom on ur wheel arch liner
465mm front
485mm rear
If u find the above measurements are out, recalibrate the suspension using the gap iid
Followed by checking the live data on ur height sensors and ur steering wheel angle sensor , so that should read zero with ur steering wheel set to dead straight
Chart below as a comparison for u ,if u get stuck or unsure about something plse don’t hesitate to ask, Hope this helps a little , plus did u get chance to charge ur battery overnight please , thks
