A resonance fiber-optic gyro (RFOG) with quadrature error reducer is provided. The RFOG with quadrature error reducer includes a laser assembly, a fiber resonator assembly, a resonance tracking loop and a quadrature error reducer circuit. The resonance tracking loop, coupled to an output of the finder resonator assembly, is used to generate a resonance frequency signal that is coupled to an OPLL mixer in one of a CCW OPLL or the CW OPLL of the laser assembly. The quadrature error reducer circuit includes an amplitude control loop and a second harmonic phase control loop. The amplitude control loop is used to generate a common modulation signal. An output of the amplitude control loop is coupled to a common phase modulator in the laser assembly. The second harmonic phase control loop is used to selectively adjust a phase of a second harmonic modulation signal in the amplitude control loop at startup.
