Security Inclination Sensor Input Test/Replacement

  1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  1. Open the trunk lid, and disconnect the 5P connector (A) from the inclination sensor (B).
  1. Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.
    • If the terminals are bent, loose or corroded, repair them as necessary and recheck the system.
    • If the terminals look OK, go to Step 4 .
  1. With the connector still disconnected, make these input tests at the connector.
    • If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
    • If all the input tests prove OK, go to Step 5 .

    1
    WHT
    Under all conditions
    Measure the voltage to ground: There should be battery voltage.
    • Blown No. 15 (10 A) fuse in the under-hood fuse/relay box
    • An open in the wire
    2
    BLK
    Under all conditions
    Check for continuity to ground: There should be continuity.
    • Poor ground (G602)
    • An open in the wire
    3
    GRN
    Inclination sensor off switch ON
    Check for continuity to ground: There should be continuity.
    • Poor ground (G501)
    • Faulty inclination sensor
    • An open in the wire
    4
    PUR
    Under all conditions
    Connect the No. 1 and No. 4 terminals with a jumper wire: The inclination sensor off switch indicator should come on.
    • Poor ground (G501)
    • Faulty inclination sensor
    • Blown bulb
    • An open in the wire
    5
    BLU
    Under all conditions
    Check for continuity between the terminal and the ultrasonic sensor 3P connector No. 2 terminal, and between the terminal and the alarm control siren 6P connector No. 4 terminal: There should be continuity.
    An open in the wire

  1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  1. Loosen the two bolts from the inclination sensor, then replace it.
  1. Install the sensor in the reverse order of removal.
