INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1. CHECK OPEN/SHORT IN CIRCUIT OF G-SENSOR.
1. Turn the ignition switch ON.
2. Measure the output voltage between terminals 2 (+) and 3 (-) of the G-sensor connector.
Is the voltage within 0.6 V - 4.5 V?

NO - Repair an open or short in the circuit between the G-sensor and the HECU.

YES - Check installing of G-sensor.

2. CHECK INSTALLING OF G-SENSOR
Visually check for the installing of the G-sensor.
Be sure to install the G-sensor with the arrow mark to be facing forward direction.

Turn the ignition switch ON.
Measure the voltage between terminals 2 (+) and 3 (-) of the G-sensor connector.

Specification: approximately 2.5 V

Incline the G-sensor to 90° angle then measure the voltage between terminals 2 (+) and 3 (-) of the G-sensor connector.

Specification: approximately 3 - 5 V
