How Does The TEMS Work?

[GreenChevelleSS]

Just wondering cause Its something Id really like to know how it hardens and softens the shocks...

 

[IJ.]

A little stepper motor on top of the shock opens or closes a valve.

Bunch of sensors tell it how much depending on which button is on/off.

^^^ and the oil in the shock must pass thru the valve/holes. So there are 3 orfices (holes), soft, med, and firm...big hole, med hole, small hole.

 

[GreenChevelleSS]

is there a way to make them stiffer without replacing the shocks or firm override?

 

[mrnickleye]

The 'firmest' setting is when the lights are all 3 lit. You cannot make it any firmer. You can make your normal/sport buttons into sport/full firm to try it out by putting a jumper (even a paper clip) into the terminals at the diagnose connector under the hood near the battery.

There is a thread how...(
