Signal Circuit Inspection
- Check for short to ground in harness
- Ignition "OFF"
- Disconnect Acceleration sensor connector and PCM connector.
- Ignition "ON" & Engine "OFF"
- Measure resistance between terminal 2 and 3 of sensor harness connector.
Specification: infinite
- Is measure resistance within Specification?
YES
- Substitute with a known-good Acceleration sensor and check for proper operation. If the problem is corrected, replace Acceleration sensor and then go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.
NO
- Open circuit or short circuit to chassis ground between Acceleration sensor harness connector and signal circuit.
- Open circuit between Acceleration sensor harness connector and PCM harness connector.
- Repair as necessary and then go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.
NOTE: In case, when acceleration sensor connector is disconnected, the voltage at terminal 3 is 0V.- Possible cause: Open or short circuit in harness between terminal 60 of PCM and terminal 3 of acceleration sensor or PCM
