Rough Road Sensor: Description and Operation
G SENSOR (ROUGH ROAD SENSOR)
The PCM receives rough road information from the G sensor. The PCM uses the rough road information to enable or disable the misfire
diagnostic. The misfire diagnostic can be greatly affected by crankshaft speed variations caused by driving on rough road surfaces. The G sensor
generates rough road information by producing a signal which is proportional to the movement of a small metal bar inside the sensor.
If a fault occurs which causes the PCM to not receive rough road information between 50 km/h and 132 km/h (30 mph and 80 mph), DTC P1391
will set.
