C0810Air Suspension Compressor Circuit
- Generic OBD-II code · Chassis
- Can trigger limp mode
- How the car detects it
- C0810 cannot be located anywhere public, whether in code lists, the NHTSA index or the GM, Saab and Mitsubishi material. The title concerns the electrical drive of the air suspension compressor, an electric motor that Continental describes with carbon brushes stressed by inrush current. Lexus uses its own code C1752 for the motor circuit on the 2013-17 LS460 and traces it to corrosion inside the compressor after water enters through the intake tubes; the fix is a new compressor and motor assembly. Mercedes-Benz likewise reports moisture and corrosion in the compressor that cut its output and leave deposits on the valve block seats, and counters it with software. A dead circuit means the springs can no longer be filled, so the body sinks or stays at one level.
