The ITB contact sensor does not detect the spaced position of the ITB within 3
seconds after the ITB unit has moved to spaced position.
• Defective image transfer unit (Contact/spaced mechanism damaged)
• Defective ITB contact sensor (S6)
• Defective ITB contact motor (M6)
• Defective EGB (PCB1)
• Loose, broken, defective connector or harness defective
Check if the SC occurs by turning the power OFF then ON. If the SC occurs again,
