Many malfunctions in the electrical system are caused by poor harness(es) and terminals. Faults can also be caused by interference from other electrical systems, and mechanical or chemical damage.
Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage.
Has a problem been found?
![]() | ▶ Repair as necessary and then go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure. |
![]() | ▶ Go to "Power Circuit Inspection" procedure. |
Ignition "ON" & Engine "OFF".
Measure voltage between power terminal of the G-YAW RATE sensor(G-sensor) harness connector and chassis ground.
