CAN-Bus electronics in angle sensor box.
CAN-Bus electronics in cable reel.
The angle sensor has a potentiometer built in that is driven by a pendulum. As the angle changes, so
will the pendulum and with it the potentiometer’s axle. The converter board supplies a constant
voltage of 5V to the angle sensor and in return monitors the voltage of the potentiometer. The
terminal used is X21. The angle sensor is connected as follows:
Verify that the sensor is being supplied with 5V by measuring between pin 5 (GND) and Pin 1 (+) of
terminal X21. If the voltage is outside of a range of 4.75 to 5.25V, the converter board might be
defective. Unplug angle sensor and measure again. If the voltage is still off, exchange converter
board. If unplugging the angle sensor made the voltage return into the acceptable range, exchange
angle sensor. If the voltage is correct continue:
