  1. Check improper installation of G-sensor. If NG, repair as necessary and go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.
  2. Check damage of rotor teeth or wheel bearing. If NG, repair as necessary and go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.
  3. Ignition "ON" & Engine "OFF".
  4. Measure waveform between terminal "2" of the G sensor harness connector and chassis ground by using an oscilloscope.

    Specification:

  5. Is the measured waveform fixed (standstill) and changing (acceleration or deceleration)?

    YES 

    • Fault is intermittent caused by improper installation of G-Sensor, abnormal Rotor and wheel bearing, and/or faulty G-sensor or was repaired and HECU memory was not cleared. Go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.

    NO 

    • Substitute with a known good G-sensor and check for proper operation. If problem is corrected, replace G-sensor and go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.
