Actuator operation check
1. Connect 9 and 10 terminals of actuator to 40 and 41 terminals of
relay box.
2. Measure the motor voltage (No.4 terminal to body earth) with
oscilloscope. Then check the motor reverse voltage occasioned
time.
The motor reverse voltage occasioned time is more than 0.1
sec.
CAUTION:

Perform checking of motor relay unit. Then confirm that
relay functions.

Driving actuator motor is with in 4 sec. to prevent heating
up.

Standard condition of the motor reverse voltage occa-
sioned time is: Battery voltage is 12V. Temperature 20°.
when the battery voltage or temperature is lower than the
standard, the motor reverse voltage occasioned time
becomes slightly shorter.
