Hold the sensor vertically.
Turn the ignition switch ON, and measure the output volt-
age with the connector joined.
Tilt the sensor 60 70° or more [C] right or left, then hold
the sensor almost vertical with the arrow mark pointed up,
and measure the output voltage.
Output Voltage at Sensor
Standard: with sensor tilted 60 70° or more right or
left: 3.7 4.4 V
with sensor arrow ma rk pointed up: 0.4
1.4 V
NOTE
If you need to test again, turn the ignition switch OFF,

If the output voltage is normal, the wiring is suspect.
Check the wiring.
If the wiring is good, check the ECU for its ground and
power supply (see ECU section).
If the output voltage is out of the specified, replace the
vehicle-down sensor.
