ABSTRACT:
A control system for governing multiple operating mode adjustable suspension units in an automotive vehicle with an adjustment mechanism for receiving an adjustment control signal for placing the suspension units in any of the multiple adjustment modes, and a fault warning mechanism for detecting an inability of the adjustment mechanism to adjust one or more of the suspension units and for generating a fault warning signal in response to such detection. The diagnostic mechanism responsive to such fault warning signal is operatively connected with the adjustment mechanism for determining the extent which the ability to adjust the suspension units has been impaired and a mode selection mechanism operatively connected with the diagnostic mechanism for deciding into which of the multiple operating modes the suspension units should be directed based upon the determination of the diagnostic mechanism, with the mode selection mechanism further including a mechanism for generating an adjustment control signal corresponding to the operating modes and for communicating such signal to the adjustment mechanism.
