Scheme 202: Identifying Switch Assembly

The dash mounted switch assembly supplies a momentary switched ground to the EHC2 Control Unit requesting a ride height change in the up or down direction. Three LED's provide current ride level selected and target ride level if a request for change has been made. The LED for the current ride height will always be illuminated. The LED for the target ride level will flash until the new ride level is reached.
