Thread: EAS unlock software knowledge?

Thought it worth finishing this off with the final results obtained today.
After some very helpful revisions with Rupert Prior ( many thanks Rupert) the fault was localised to Front Right Solenoid not working, probable weak compressor , no air actually going to Front right airbag and probably leak in air bag.
Rupert diabled the system manually pumped up the airbags and I went home to re examine the valve block and Front Right Solenoid. 10 km down the road both front bags are down to the stops...getting use to this now.

Today pulled down the valve block again. Only takes me a few minutes to remove now and pulled apart the Solenoid. Everything looked in place, clean as a whistle and still we have problems. Rupert advised that you can do a quick test of the solenoid by feeding the connections for the solenoid with a twelve volt feed. I tested the solenoid and still no action. ( no clicking)
Pulled down again and pulled down the solenoid next to fully compare every item.
The culprit.... on the top of the lower peice of the solenoid shaft ( the bit with the spring around it) is a black rubber cap that sits flush on top of the shaft. This lower shaft slides inside the upper part of the shaft and is not visible unless you take the shaft apart.
On the solenoid that was not working, the cap was not seated flush and was easily placed back in its correct position. once back in place, solenoid works, air goes to front bags, car pumps up, standard height reached in a few minutes and I can't help but begin to smile.
Still have issues to sort out and probably will replace the airbags soon but for now I am off to Qld.
Thanks again to Rupert for his help and advise and a few tricks to try out.

Took the risk and drove up to Qld last Sunday. Got to Macksville and had a EAS fault 55 kmph message. Said the left front valve stuck. so reset the fault and took off. after about 30km the system failed to reach full pressure and faulted again although I had retained some air in the bags so given the decent roads, ignored the fault and continued to Brisbane and then on to the Sunshine cst.
On Monday I stripped the solenoid that was suspect and sure enough the little piston cap had moved again so glued it in using a little gasket sealer..no super glue handy.
Reinstalled and all was good. travelled over 150km whilst up there no problem. Feeling confident all was well travelled back to Sydney and mysteriously had a further EAS Fault ( just out of Macksville)
Reset the fault ( RR solenoid stuck open, RR solenoid stuck closed) and set off again. System pumped up and had no further issue.
When it faults again I will take all the solenoids for the airbags out and glue those inner piston caps in place.
Anybody have a clue on what they actually do other than soften the hit of the piston when it moves up the cylinder? Would like to know why if it is slightly out it stopped the solenoid altogether.
