From 3SI Wiki

Electronically Controlled Suspension

Description

This system controls the ride stiffness at the push of a button.

TOUR - A softer easier ride for daily driving/cruising. SPORT - A stiffer ride good for hi-performance driving.

1. The ECS system automatically manipulates the suspension at each wheel independently to control roll, squat and dive and to compensate for various road conditions. Automatic control can also be overridden via the ECS button in the cockpit; in Sport mode, the suspension is locked into its firmest setting.
2. The system consists of a G-Force sensor, steering angular velocity sensor, throttle position sensor, vehicle speed sensor and electronic control unit.
3. If a fault is detected by the suspension controller, the Tour and Sport lights will flash. The shop manual provides an easy procedure for extracting the error code to identify the problem.
