Inspection

1.	Connect the KDS/GDS on the Data Link Connector (DLC).

Measure the output voltage and fuel pressure of the RPS at idle and various engine speed.

Pressure		Output Voltage (V) [Vref=5V]
bar	[MPa (kgf/cm², psi)]	Output Voltage (V) [Vref=5V]
0	0 (0, 0)	0.5
140	14 (142, 2031)	2.5
280	28 (286, 4061)	4.5
