Inclination Sensor

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Lexus LX 470. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. With the combination meter in which the inclination sensor installed, connect battery positive (+) to terminal No. A16 (IGN+) of the meter connector, and battery negative (-) to terminal No. B16 (E/G EARTH). See Fig 1.
  2. Check whether or not the voltage is 5 volts between the Vcc and the GND terminals of the inclination sensor connector.
  3. Check that voltage (standard value: sensor in level position is about 4.5 volts, sensor inclined is about 0.5 volt) between the OUT and the GND terminals when the inclination sensor is in level position and when it is inclined backward and forward.
