Zusammenfassung:A vehicle air suspension system comprises gas springs 22, 24, 26 and 28 associated with each of the vehicle's wheels 48, a reservoir 38, a compressor 12 and a single pressure sensor 42, all connected to a main line 18 of a pneumatic circuit by respective valves 30, 32, 34, 36 and 40. The valves are controlled so as to connect the pressure sensor to various parts of the system to measure the pressure there and the measured pressures are used for various functions such as monitoring the weight of the vehicle, fault diagnosis and varying the ride height.
