I doubt the wheels will fall off... but the light could be on for any number of reasons. Check q45.org for further reading. There is lots of good information that should help.

1Turn your key to on (dont start it)2Toggle your Height switch from N to H at least 10 times (ending with the switch on N)3 Wait a few seconds and the light on the dash will start blinking with the error codes.

they read slow flashes then fast.

so 2 slow flashes with 3 fast flashes would indicate a code 23...

Report back with your error codes and well help you start in the right place.make sure you have your active suspension fluid topped off before testing...

Good luck.

Any chance you can send me a copy of the section dealing with the Active? I have my FSM... but, it would be nice to have an electronic copy.

Thanks!

Wes is right..You have the part of which I refer to it is the section marked FA (Front Axel)It contains all the troubleshooting steps and error codes as well as step by step procedures for maintaining a "STILL"* Active Q45a's Full Active Suspension System.

"STILL" Active = HG50\Q45a that has not been trashed\coverted\gutted to save like 200.00 dollars a over 4 years.

I don't think anyone ever sent me a copy of the FSM via email?!? I have the hard copy, which is fine, but not an electronic copy.

I would like to have a copy on my computer, since I tend to do a lot of reading on the computer. So, if you guys have it, fire it at me.

Thanks!

a note on the ACT SUS light is that it resets every time. but if it comes on every time, then you have a persistent fault. even though light resets, stored code remains.

Houston, eh? can't get much closer to Texasoil [Keith Bowers]. Look up B&B suspension in Bellaire. Keith is da man on the active.
