Vehicle shock absorber control system
A shock absorber control system is described for controlling the damping force of at least one variable shock absorber mounted in a vehicle, comprising: first determination means for producing a signal when the derived wheel acceleration goes out of a predetermined range by reaching any one of an upper or lower limit. The upper and lower limits define boundaries of the predetermined range; second determination means for producing a signal when the derived wheel acceleration subsequently goes out of the predetermined range by reaching the other one of the upper or lower limit, within a first predetermined period of time from the production of the signal the first determination means; and control means for adjusting the damping force of the shock absorber in accordance with the signal produced by the second determination means.
