Tilt Sensor

The tilt sensor is located above the radiator under the
radiator/electrical access panel.
! WARNING
Incorrect installation of the tilt sensor could cause sud-
den loss of engine power which could result in loss of
vehicle control resulting in injury or death.
CAUTION
Do not drop the tilt sensor as shock can damage the
internal mechanism.
SUPPLY VOLTAGE
1. Disconnect the three-wire connector from the sensor;
then select DC Voltage on the multimeter and con-
nect the red tester lead to the (C) pin and the black
tester lead to the (A) pin.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position. The
multimeter should read approximately 5 DC volts. If
correct voltage is not indicated, check the main relay
and 10-amp ignition fuse, wiring harness, or the igni-
tion switch.
3. Remove the red tester lead and connect to the (B)
pin. The multimeter should read approximately 0.5
DC volts. If the specified voltage is not indicated,
check wire connections at the ECU or substitute
another ECU to verify the test.

remove the mounting screws securing the sensor to
the frame.
2. Install the needle adapters to the multimeter leads;
then select DC Voltage on the multimeter.

4. Tilt the sensor 60° or more to the left and right
observing the meter. The meter should read 3.0-7.0
DC volts after approximately one second in the tilted
position. If the meter readings are not as specified,
the tilt sensor is defective.
