Calibration DO NOT RERUN CALIBRATION ON A SYSTEM THAT HAS BEEN PREVIOUSLY CALIBRATED. IF YOU ARE HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE SYSTEM, TRYING TO RECALIBRATE WILL MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. Calibration: !ATTENTION!!!!! The vehicle MUST be running in order to calibrate this system! Only turning the key on will NOT work! Hooking it to a battery charger will NOT work! The vehicle must be running!
Troubleshooting Guide RidePRO e5 will not turn on. Diagnosis : No LED light on top of ECU Solution : Check RED wire for constant 12 volts, YELLOW wire for 12 volts with key ON, and the 2 fuses in ground wires from ECU.

Troubleshooting Guide Control panel switches do not activate the correct air spring. Diagnosis : Ex: LF switch actuates the RF air spring. Solution : Swap airline at the valve block. Presets work, but does not achieve target. Diagnosis A: Air tank is too small. Air spring pressure equalizes with tank pressure before achieving preset pressure/height. Solution A: Reprogram #1 preset for the highest psi that allows the suspension to bottom out.
