DTC P16A0: G Sensor Circuit: Procedure

  1. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (G SENS VOL (1X)) 
    1. Connect Techstream to DLC3.
    2. Start the engine and turn the tester on.
    3. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / E-ACM / Data List.
    4. Read the G Sensor Output Vol (1x) value.

      Standard voltage

      The voltage changes within the range of 0.11 to 4.46 V.

    NG → See step   3 

    OK: Go to next step 

  2. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (G SENSOR OUTPUT VOL (11X) AND G SENSOR STANDARD VOLTAGE) 
    1. Connect Techstream to DLC3.
    2. Start the engine and turn the tester ON.
    3. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / E-ACM / Data List.
    4. Read the G Sensor Output Vol (11x).

      Standard voltage

      The voltage changes within the range of 0 to 5 V.

    5. Read the G Sensor Standard Voltage value.

      Standard voltage

      1.94 to 3.08 V

    OK → REPLACE ACTIVE CONTROL ENGINE MOUNT ECU 

    NG: Go to next step 

  3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (ACTIVE CONTROL ENGINE MOUNT ECU - ACCELERATION SENSOR) 
    1. Disconnect the A9 E-ACM ECU connector and B11 acceleration sensor connector.

    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard resistance

      Tester Connection Specified Value
      VGS (A9-24) - SGV (B11-1) Below 1 Ω
      GL1 (A9-19) - SGRR (B11-3) Below 1 Ω
      GGND (A9-26) - SGND (B11-2) Below 1 Ω

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  4. CHECK POWER SOURCE CIRCUIT (ACCELERATION SENSOR) 
    1. Disconnect the B11 acceleration sensor connector.

    2. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard voltage

      Tester Connection Specified Value
      SGV (B11-1) - SGND (B11-2) 4.5 to 5.2 V

    NG → REPLACE ACTIVE CONTROL ENGINE MOUNT ECU 

    OK → REPLACE ACCELERATION SENSOR
