bloody funny.o_O
no its still not fixed.
heres why, the saga continues, in a town far, far away from any hope lives a man who's l322 has gone into many,many modes of spazed out suspension heights.
the last issue was the total incompetent seller of the sensors ,
apparently ..when i tried to fit one of the sensors on to the bracket of cheese.. which bent straight away, i then sent messages back and forth, one message received every 24 hours!!
eventually they were returned, then only to have half a fookin refund because... YOU HAVE USED ONE OF THEM !
call me old fashioned but how would i have known if i hadnt tried to fit one of them?
ebay stepped in a refund awarded to me..
so another learning curve.
a member on here said to me' some of the stuff you can buy isnt worth the pollution its wrapped in'
thanks mate..very true,very true.:)

hi there
well no, i even put an aero 360 moisture catcher thing in the car to absorb the moisture,as its just sitting there, giving me evils!
the new parts are in the hands of red santa ( royal mail) and hopefully be here soon, then the trials can continue..
and the head scratchin:) and the shoutin:mad:and then the sellin:D:D:D
 
Maybe taking out the eas ecu and putting it in the airing cupboard to see if it's suffering damp?

Hopefully the sensors sort it but if not my local indi reckons he's had quite a few where people have kept trying new sensors but it's actually the cable that is faulty.

yep i was hoping the sensors would cure..... but ..after a day of shaggin cold gettin nowhere and the car managing to get into insane positions..
my issue started when osf bag blew and replaced to match nsf, then bought the foxwell nt530.. then tried calibration, then had issues wth the height sensors, all changed , BUT now they are fitted,turned up yesterday.. so re connect foxwell and tried to calibrate.. in abs theres a fault 8a eas can fault, wont go away checked every system no faults, but now i have zero height in mm on osf and nsr, which is the opposite of what it had with the old sensors.. so tried to calibrate , very slow to raise the front, as if it had nt been told to raise front, im saying front as it wont raise the rear in calibration mode at all..
so now left with it looking more pitifull than ever with the rear in the air and front low.. me thinks strange that its now zero mm heights opposite to what it had originally and it wont raise to calibrate.. i reckon foxwell is corrupt.. same as someone else said on here before xmas, his one was going back.
its sees info when i isolate and look at suspension height n voltages, now im missing the opposite of what it originally said , but put it in high its all there. so to me that would eliminate the wiring and point to sensors, but they are new, that guy that said foxwell corrupt said it was done first time on snapon solus edge.

@dwarfer can you get the foxwell to just raise/lower each corner rather than re calibrate?
Click to expand...
it can manually raise front or back, but only shovs front up a bit when trying to calibrate, the onl fault code in abs 8a eas fault. cannot be erased on foxwell..
then the info is diagonally opposite to what i had with the old sensors
 
Have you tried going into calibration height then just save and exit without entering any heights to see where it goes, then try calibrating it again. I had to do that once on mine on one of it's hissy fits.

i will try tomorrow, so get into calibration screen where it asks for heights, enter no values,then press ok for all boxes then retry correct way?

Yes, hopefully if there's any corruption on the stored heights it may overwrite them. May not work but worth a shot.
