2009 L322 RR with what started as an intermittent EAS fault associated with a dropped right front corner.
This would correct itself with no human intervention but then became permanent dropping all four corners.
Here’s the riddle. Through trial and error I discovered that if I used the steering wheel method to clear the fault WHILE THE PASSENGER (right) door was open, the lights on the console EAS control would illuminate AND the car would rise and level to standard height. Suspension stayed at standard height and level for several days and then, while I was having lunch for about an hour the front right corner dropped again.
This time however, none of my attempts or variations to replay the open door steering wheel reset technique would work. Yes the fault would clear and the console lights would illuminate AND the EAS 4x4 screen would say “raising “ but unlike the previous trials, the car would not rise. Closing the door in activates the lights on the console EAS controls and despite the “Raising” message still displayed, nothing happens. I’m flat on the bump stops and wondering what to do next. I repeated variations on this procedure several times to no avail.
Where next? Sensor on the right corner? Replace right corner bag? I’m very well versed in rebuilding the p38 EAS soup to nuts but the L322 is new to me.
