Trajet Damping Adjustment Fault

My 2001 Hyundai Trajet with a diesel engine is giving me grief. I have an error stored, warning light on the dash, and the ride feels unstable. It says damping adjustment fault. Fuses look good, but I haven't dug deeper. Could it be a dodgy wire or plug? Has anyone else seen this?

The issue is traced to the front right suspension, with potential causes including a faulty wire or plug connection. The problem was resolved by replacing a corroded connector on the front right strut, restoring the vehicle's stability.

I had something similar with my Trajet: a bumpy ride and a light on the dash. Did you check the connections to the suspension components themselves? The error memory usually points to a specific corner of the car. Does the error message suggest anything?

The error code points to the front right. The car feels unstable in the front. Is it possible to fix myself, or am I better off taking it to the shop?

Front right, eh? That's where my problem was too. I tried fiddling with it, but honestly, without the right tools and diagnostic equipment, you're just guessing. It's best to get it checked out by a professional. The cable and plug connection might be defective. It was with mine.

Thanks for the insight! I dropped it off at the workshop today. It was indeed a corroded connector on the front right strut. New connector fitted and error cleared, all in for 95€. Drives like a dream now!
