A vehicle jump detection method and system for a vehicle includes an electronic control module (ECM), at least one ride height sensor (RHS) in signal communication with the ECM and configured to measure a vertical wheel travel distance from a predetermined point on the vehicle, at least one accelerometer in signal communication with the ECM and configured to measure a vertical acceleration of the vehicle frame, and a vehicle speed sensor in signal communication with the ECM. The ECM is configured to independently determine, based on one or more signals from the at least one RHS, the at least one accelerometer, and the vehicle speed sensor, if (i) wheels of a front axle are in the air, (ii) wheels of a rear axle are in the air, and (iii) if the wheels of both the front and rear axles are in the air.
A vehicle jump detection system for a vehicle having a front axle with front wheels and a rear axle with rear wheels, the system comprising:
A method of jump detection and control for a vehicle having a front axle with front wheels, a rear axle with rear wheels, and an electronic control module (ECM) in signal communication with at least one ride height sensor (RHS), at least one accelerometer, and a vehicle speed sensor, the method comprising:
