Thread: Making EAS Height calibration blocks

Thanks again all for you input.

Why are you concerned about reading out of range?

Hi Dougal,

from what I understand, if the readings went outside the sensor range eg extended height 105-150 for rear this would cause the system to go to a default value. Is that incorrect or is it the way Ive interpreted the information?

I'd try it and see.

In my experience, when the input "bit" number exceeds the range stored in the firmware, the EAS ECU may either throw a fault or default all settings to factory values and you have to start again...

Yep. You get a fault and a reset to the default settings, undoing all your good work. So you have to ensure they're in range. Also ensure they're within 10 of each other left to right.

I did try set the rears to 165 while attached to the eas unlock and it would not let me, it returned to 145. Sounds like not worth trying again.

Thanks Guys.

Sean I had not heard of the within 10 side to side, thats good to know.

Sean have you used the standard heights or gone custom heights, we would have similar setups, particularly as my lift spacers are from your design thank you.

So in that case, you could extend the push-rods to bring it into range as long as you can keep your other settings are also within range.

My settings are what they are. There's no such thing as factory eas settings, only factory heights. Every sensor produces slightly different readings at a set height.

So my settings are dictated by the heights I've used. with an eye on the upper and lower limits of course.
