Chukkieegg Posted May 3, 2023 Report Share Posted May 3, 2023 So got pasm failure on my dash this morning Suspension has gone stiff and when I plug my code reader in I get fa body accerlation sensor error At mot a month ago ns front shock was listed as light misting and put down as advisory and car has been fine until this morning Obviously code reader is pointing to a sensor but would it more likely be a failed shock given it had light misting ns front shock does appear to be more bouncy than os shock Anyone else encountered same issue?

Paul P Posted May 3, 2023 Report Share Posted May 3, 2023 The suspension going stiff is a fail safe for pasm. In the event of an error it goes into full sport mode as it considers it the safest state if its no longer active. No knowledge of the sensor issue.

bally4563 Posted May 4, 2023 Report Share Posted May 4, 2023 The acceleration sensor is situated at the front of the gear box console jut remove the front bit of carpet trim and take two screws out and pull the leather console forward and out of the way. Right at the front behind the radio etc you will see it laying flat with a plug going into it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve known the controller to fail, if so I have one easily swopped out and plug mine in see if it sorts the problem 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
