NO >> INSPECTION END
Diagnosis Procedure
1.CHECK G SENSOR SIGNAL
With CONSULT
Is the inspection result normal? YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> GO TO 3.
2.CALIBRATION OF G SENSOR (PART 1)
With CONSULT
>> Perform “CALIBRATION OF G SENSOR”. Refer to TM-147, "Work Procedure".
3.Check g sensor
: Direction of gravitational
force
Is the inspection result normal? YES >> GO TO 4.
NO >> Replace G sensor. Refer to TM-265, "Removal and Installation".
4.CALIBRATION OF G SENSOR (PART 2)
With CONSULT
>> Perform “CALIBRATION OF G SENSOR”. Refer to TM-147, "Work Procedure".
