sensor readings??

Mark Piercy · Mar 14, 2017

I put the bugger on the blocks, result. Sitting pretty again. rr sensor showing a fault. Happens to be the one the broke its fitting when I tried to undo it.. Anyhow, front right sensor is reading 15-20 bits higher on all height settings but with no effect on its stance. I did swap the sensors side to side on the front to gain possibly new surface use.
are we talking new sensors?

I'm not entirely sure what you are asking but if you are talking height sensors, if the height is ok and it moves up and down to the correct heights I wouldn't worry too much about the readings I am guessing you are getting off of diagnostics as long as the physical height is ok

thank you, the readings are from the story' eas program. Before putting on the blocks I had the front right sitting lower than the rest, readings to match and no adjustment made any difference. After the blocks... It sits correct??
its not really a precise system. I had made a marker stick, if you like and the readings were all correct wheel arch to floor. But there would be a difference in 10mm after raising and lowering the bus! I guess age has a lot to do and ageing sensors dont help! No real question just wanted to blurt my findings to somebody who might like me...

if it was a renault, id burn it!!

That's not a problem , this is group therapy after all, what are the blocks you are putting it on ?

When setting with blocks. Carefully adjust metal arm on sensor (bend up, or down) until readings are as near as possible to within two bits side to side. Then write settings to ECU. Vehicle should be on level ground with correct tyre pressures.
