Chieks and inspections

CHIEKS AND INSPECTIONS

• Visually check the control unit, accelerometer and relative connectors and electrical wiring for physical damage. If necessary, replace the damaged components. To check the functionality refer to: "ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC DIAGNOSIS".

SHOCK ABSORBER SOLENOID VALVE CONTROL RELAY

REMOVAL AND REFITTING

1. To remove the relay located under the instrument panel to one side of the branch control unit, proceed as indicated for the other relays (see: REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS - BODYWORK - GR. 40 - CONTROLLED DAMPING SUSPENSION SYSTEM CONTROL RELAY).

• Visually check the relay and connecting pin for physical damage and replace if necessary. To check the functionality see: "ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC DIAGNOSIS".

CHIECKING TRIM AND CHARACTERISTIC ANGLES

CHIECKING TRIM OF FRONT WHEELS

PRELIMINARY OPERATIONS

Wheel trim should be checked after the following operation and checks have been completed:

• tyres inflated to the specified pressure (see: REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS - BODYWORK - GR. 28 - WHEELS AND TYRES).
• Vehicle placed on a lift.
• Vehicle set in accordance with one of the following loading conditions:
  • empty (with specified refill quantities)
  • static load (specified refill quantities and weight distribution as shown).
• Rock the vehicle a few times to settle the suspension.

1. Position the reference tool on the resting plane of the vehicle.
2. Using a surface gauge measure distance "B" from the resting plane of the vehicle to the centre of the screw securing the spherical pin.
   • Using a millimeter rule measure the distance.
3. Using the surface gauge measure the distance "A" between the resting plane of the vehicle and the centre of the pin of the swinging arm.
   • Using a millimeter rule measure the distance.
