333 (three hundred thirty-three) – CANbus Data Not Read 

 

Note:  Each time the engine is started, the “suspension” indicator will be illuminated for approximately 
5 seconds.  During this time interval, the ECU will gather information from the system sensors.  After 
the time interval has elapsed the ECU will turn off the indicator.  This is a normal “power-up” 
function and should not be confused with a system problem. 
 
Note:  The following illustration summarizes the system warning lights with relation to the respective user 
interface indicators. 

Air Pressure Indicator 

 

This indicator will flash when 
the air pressure is insufficient 
to properly operate the air 
suspension control system. 

  
  
 

 

 
 

Suspension Indicator 

 

This indicator will be flash when a 
system fault has occurred. 
 
This indicator will light for five (5) 
seconds when the engine is started.
