)UNIT INSPECTION
1. Inspection of the height control sensor RR LH
(1) Preparation before inspection
(a) Connect 3 dry-cell batteries (1.5 V) in series.
CAUTION:
Do not use rechargeable dry-cell batteries. They may not output 1.5 V of voltage.
(b) Connect the battery’s positive terminal to the connector terminal 3, the battery ground to terminal 1, and apply 4.5 V of voltage between terminals 3 and 1.
(2) Measuring voltage
(a) With the voltage applied, measure the voltage between terminals when slowly moving the link up and down.

Criteria |
CAUTION:
·Do not apply 5 V or more of voltage between the terminals.
·If you drop the height control sensor RR LH, replace it with a new one.
·If you drop the height control sensor RR LH, replace it with a new one.
NOTE:
If the power source voltage changes, so will the output voltage.
