Inspection Procedure

  1. INSPECT HEIGHT CONTROL SENSOR SUB-ASSEMBLY REAR RH 
    1. Connect 3 dry cell batteries (1.5 V) in series.
    2. Remove the height control sensor sub-assembly rear.
    3. Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 1 and the negative (-) lead from the battery to terminal 3.
    4. Measure the voltage between terminals 2 and 3 while slowly moving the link up and down.

      Standard voltage
