How to Reset Range Rover Suspension Fault

Resetting a suspension fault on a Range Rover can restore functionality but requires addressing the root cause to prevent recurrence. Here's how:

Common Causes

2006-2015 Range Rover Suspension faults often result from air suspension leaks, compressor failure, electrical issues (faulty sensors or wiring), overloading, or calibration errors.

Range Rover Suspension Fault Reset

1. Manual Reset: Turn off the Range Rover engine and disconnect the battery (negative terminal first). Wait 10–15 minutes, reconnect the battery (positive terminal first), then start the vehicle. Test the suspension system for proper functionality.
2. Use a Diagnostic Tool: Connect a compatible diagnostic scanner (e.g., IIDTool or Autel) to the OBD-II port. Scan for fault codes, note them, and clear the codes if the issue is resolved. Restart the vehicle and check if the warning persists.
3. Recalibration: If the fault remains, recalibrate the suspension system using a diagnostic tool. Ensure the vehicle is parked on level ground and follow the tool’s instructions to reset height sensor settings. Test all height modes to confirm resolution.
4. Inspect Components: Check for leaks in air springs, compressor performance, sensor alignment, and blown fuses or relays. Replace or repair faulty parts as needed.

Precautions and Maintenance

Don’t ignore suspension warnings, as they impact handling and safety. Avoid overloading the vehicle and conduct regular inspections for wear or damage. Use OEM parts for repairs and keep the control module updated.

Conclusion

Resetting a Range Rover suspension fault may involve a manual reset, clearing codes, or recalibrating the system. Always address the underlying issue (e.g., leaks or component failure) to prevent future faults. For persistent problems, consult a certified technician.
