Inspection Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Lexus RX 350. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. INSPECT HEIGHT CONTROL SENSOR SUB-ASSEMBLY REAR RH 
    1. Connect 3 dry cell batteries (1.5 V) in a series.
    2. Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 1 and negative (-) lead from the battery to terminal 3.
    3. Measure voltage between terminal 2 and terminal 3 when slowly move the link up and down.
