problems with TEMS susension

Tzekel · 10-19-2005, 08:36 AM

Hey guys. Im having problems with my Toyota Electronic Modulated Suspension(TEMS) on my 1987 supra, it dont work anymore, was wondering where a good place to start troubleshooting would be? But let me explain what happened when it stoped working. I was driving down an interstate racing a 1993 Camero ( he lost btw

) when i saw a police car and decided to take the next exit but to my suprise it wasnt but 1/8 of a mile away so i was still running around 120mph, so when i sturned the wheels to exit i heard a REALLY loud pop and the TEMS along with the fog lights quit working. HELP ME PLZ!!

sounds like you've actually blown a mighty fuse somewhere.... first place i'd check is the main fuse/relay in the kickpanel... see if you can smell anything suspicious

Yes, it seems as though you blew a fuse. I just looked up the diagrams in the TSRM online, and the 2 circuits (tems & fog lites) are not related. Each has its own 15a fuse. I could not determine by the TSRM which fuse block they are in.

This is probably not related, but check to see if your battery is tied down securely. If it is sliding around it could short something out.
