It’s been mentioned before but I’ll say it again. There is one pump and one pressure transducer that monitors the pump output. When you do a lift cycle the pump runs and at the time the front, rear and height accumulator solenoids change state the pump pressure at that point in time should be readable by the VCI and passed to the interface software for display in the appropriate field. There’s nothing smart about the system, it doesn’t store the last pressure readings, constantly monitor or anything. It’s just a basic on demand pressure reading at solenoid switch points - so regardless of what you are using to display these values you need to have the engine running and do a L to N raise cycle. Last point is that I’ve seen sufficient flaky readings to disregard the obvious outliers and you probably need to do, say, 3 sets of readings and take the median. I use a manual pressure gauge if I’m serious about checking as it shows actual pressure at the damper assemblies. The book states 6.9MPa as the front design pressure when read by Techstream but in my vehicle to get the optimum 5.7MPa at the dampers (gauge) I need 6.7MPa at the pump (Techstream).
Is that L to N or N to H? If L to N then very, very high. Helps to include actual vehicle heights and status of weight ie stock or 400 lbs of gear in the back or whatever with your readings for context.
