MKIII EAS Fault interpretation
Fault interpretation: When a fault is detected, the ECU will attempt to maintain a comfortable ride quality with restricted functionality of theair suspension system. The system functionality depends on the severity of the fault. The faults are defined as minor or major faults.Minor faults are: Most sensor faults (hardware faults and plausibility faults) Cross link…

MKIII EAS Fault Detection
Fault Detection:The air suspension ECU performs fault detection and plausibility checks. Fault detection is limited to faults that the ECU can directly measure, as follows: Sensor hardware faults Valve hardware faults Sensor and actuator supply faults Bus failures ECU hardware errors. Plausibility checks are checks on signal behaviour are as follows: Average height does not change correctly Height changes too slowly Suspension…

MKIII EAS Height Sensors
EAS Height Sensors:Under normal operating conditions, the air suspension ECU keeps the vehicle level at the ‘current’ ride height. Theincoming height signals from the sensors are passed through filters to remove irregular signals produced by roadnoise or other irregularities. When the vehicle is stationary or a height change is in progress, the signals are passedthrough…
