Lexus NX Damping Adjustment Fault

Experiencing an error and warning light with my 2016 Lexus NX hybrid, plus a really bumpy ride at 109909 km. Anyone else encounter a damping adjustment fault?

Whoa, that sounds familiar! I've got an NX too. I had a similar problem with a bumpy ride and a warning light. Did you check the cable and plug connections to the shock absorbers? That was my issue, or at least it sounds extremely similar.

Interesting! Where exactly are those connections located? I had a quick look, but honestly, the whole suspension system looks like a tangled mess of wires and tubes to me. Any pointers on what I should be looking for?

Okay, so I'm no expert, but I remember my mechanic saying it's near the top of the shock absorber itself, where the electronic part connects. Honestly, unless you're very comfortable poking around, I'd recommend taking it to a workshop. Could save you a bigger headache. Turns out it was just a faulty connection!

Thanks a bunch for the advice! I took it to my mechanic, and you were spot on – a defective cable connection was indeed the culprit. Repair came to 95€. Feeling relieved it wasn't anything major!
