Recently bought a Citroen c5 c7 2.2 that won’t raise the front suspension. The rear works fine in all height settings. I’ve changed the height sensor but it didn’t change anything. I’ve also charged the battery since it was in economy mode. Anyone has an idea ?
The codes I get is:
C1147 rear body height sensor fault
U1118 Fault absence of communication with built-in-systems interface
U2118 Triggering height adjustment receipt anomaly
Citroen c5 2.2 x7 -13 stuck in lowest

Have a read through this thread, you may get some ideas. 
I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure!
I used to ride on two wheels, but now I need all four!

9 out of 10, the lever of the height sensor is in the wrong position!!
Look at the position it is now, then you can turn it 90 degrees up or down, depends how it's now and reconnect the rod.
This fault happens when the lower arm is replaced or other repair on it.
Because the height sensor is connected to the stabilizer rod, the position of the lever is changed without noticing.

Nothing is happening with the lever on the height sensor, I’ve hade the dog bone off and gently turned the lever and you can hear the hydraulic pump trying to raise the car but it won’t move
