Tilt Position Sensor Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The tilt position is sent to the ECU as a voltage signal from the position \
sensor.
A constant 5 V is supplied to terminal 1 of sensor.
The voltage at terminal 3 varies with position and is input to the ECU.

Hint
P1. Remove ECU with connectors still connected.
2. Remove tilt sensor with connector still connected.
Measure voltage between terminals TiS and E
1 of ECU
connector, while turning tilt sensor lever slowly by hand
from raised side to lowered side.
Voltage:
Fully raised: Below 1 V
Fully lowered: 4 ± 6 V
In addition, as the lever is turned, the voltage should
increase gradually without interruption.
Proceed to next circuit inspection shown on matrix chart
(See page SR±52).
2Check tilt position sensor.
C
OK
Hint
PDisconnect tilt sensor connector.
Measure resistance between terminals 1 and 2 of tilt
sensor connector.
Resistance: 4 ± 6
Measure resistance between terminals 3 and 2 of tilt
sensor connector, while turning tilt sensor lever slowly
by hand from raised side to lowered side.
Resistance:
Fully raised: Below 100
Fully lowered: 4 ± 6
In addition, as the lever is turned, the resistance
should increase gradually without interruption.
Replace tilt position sensor.
3Check harness and connectors between ECU and tilt position sensor (See \
page IN±33).
Repair harness or connector.
Check and replace ECU.
