INSPECTION

1. INSPECT ACCELERATION SENSOR






(a) Check that the sensor bracket is not deformed.
(b) Remove the acceleration sensor assembly.
(c) Connect 3 dry batteries of 1.5 V in series.
(d) Connect terminal 3 (VGS) to the battery positive (+) terminal, and terminal 2 (GGND) to the battery negative (-) terminal, then measure the voltage between terminals 1 (GL1) and 2 (GGND) in the following conditions.
Standard voltage:





NOTICE:
- Do not apply more than 6 V.
- Do not drop the acceleration sensor assembly. If it is dropped, replace it with a new one.
- Never place the acceleration sensor assembly removed from the vehicle upside down.
- To prevent deformation of the bracket, do not apply excessive force when assembling the rear console box assembly.
HINT: When the acceleration sensor assembly is tilted, it may output a different value.
