An overtravel error occurs. • Is the frame within the cap frame area?
Move the frame within the cap frame area and turn on the power.
• Check to see if the signal of the X area sensor turns ON and OFF in
PORT test mode.
When the signal does not change, refer to the block diagram showing
the cable connections and check to see if connection from the X area sensor
to the main PCB is proper. Replace the X area sensor with a new one.
