CLK 320 (208.365) V6-3.2L (112.940) (1999)
DANGER:
-
Risk of accident from vehicle starting off by itself when engine running Risk of injury from contusions and burns if you insert your
hands into the engine when it is started or when it is running
-
Secure vehicle to prevent it from moving off by itself
-
Wear closed and close-fitting work clothes
-
Do not touch hot or rotating parts
4
Start engine and allow to idle
5
Press suspension-control module lever to position "fill" (F)
6
Check the release pressure of the bypass valve in the hydraulic suspension-control module
CAUTION:
-
Because the pressures are considerable, keep test as brief as possible
-
Ensure that the reservoir contains sufficient fluid Never let the pump suck air
NOTE: The suspension-control module's bypass valve limits the supply pressure of the hydraulic pump. The bypass valve emits a whistling noise
as it opens, Bypass valve release pressure
7
Set level controller lever to "Empty" position (L)
8
Switch off engine
9
Check base pressure of discharge valve in hydraulic suspension-control module Read base pressure on pressure gauge
-
The system should reach base pressure after no more than a maximum of 3 minutes
NOTE: Leave tester connected
10
Allow the system to settle for approximately 5 minutes, then read the base pressure again
-
The base pressure should not drop during this period with the system in its passive state
-
If pressure falls, Replace the suspension-control module
DANGER:
-
Risk of injury to skin or eyes from hydraulic fluid spraying out under pressure Risk of poisoning from swallowing hydraulic fluid
-
Render the hydraulic system pressureless before commencing work on system
-
Wear protective clothing and eye protection
11
Disconnect tester at level controller
12
Recharge hydraulic system
