Post by Sirrepairalot » Thu Mar 07, 2019 1:42 pm

Hi folks,after recent work on the back end replacing control arms and bushings,I’m now getting the above.i have been raising the rear axle with my scanner but after about 4 days it starts to lower again.getting code saying regulation time fault 1 sided.all I did was disconnect the 10mm nut on the sensors when removing the trailing arms and all worked before.

Are you sure you haven’t flipped one of the sensors over, make sure they are both pointing in the same direction.

Start with the simple steps first, check the fuse its a 30amp fuse the last one on the right side of the fuse tray i had an issue with my suspension been really rough I checked and it was luckily only a fuse. Hope its same for you. 👍
