Removal Height Sensor 1. Remove the height sensor connector (A). 2. Loosen the mounting bolts(Body: 2EA, chassis: 1EA) from height sensor bracket. Tightening torque : 3 ~ 5N.m (30 ~ 50kgf.m, 2.21 ~ 3.68lb-ft) 3. Remove the height sensor.
Inspection 1. Measure the pressure of high pressure line by measuring voltage output between NO.1 and NO.2 terminals. 2. Inspect the voltage value whether it is sufficient to be regular value or not. Voltage = 0.00878835 * Pressure + 0.37081095 [PSIA] 3.
