Abstract

A method and apparatus for adjusting a height control system of a vehicle, which has a control apparatus capable of carrying out diagnostic functions, and takes place by means of a diagnostic apparatus. In a diagnostic mode, the diagnostic apparatus selects a "height adjusting" function in which the height of the vehicle is adjusted by means of manual measurement and incremental control of an adjusting device for increasing or decreasing the height. When the height is correct, the actual height value is inputted as the future desired height value, and the diagnostic analysis is stopped.
