  1. INSPECT HEIGHT CONTROL SENSOR 
    1. Check the front height control sensor:
      1. Remove the front height control sensor RH or front height control sensor LH. Refer to REMOVAL .

      2. Connect 3 1.5 V dry cell batteries in series.
      3. Connect the positive (+) end of the battery to terminal 3 (SHB) of the height control sensor and the negative (-) end of the battery to terminal 1 (SHG). While applying 4.5 V, slowly moving the sensor's link up and down, and measure the voltage between terminal 2 (SHFR*1 or SHFL*2) and terminal 1 (SHG).
