| DTC Code | DTC Name |
|---|---|
| C1415 | Rear Speed Sensor RH Output Malfunction |
| C1416 | Rear Speed Sensor LH Output Malfunction |
DESCRIPTION
The speed sensor detects wheel speed and sends the appropriate signals to the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly). These signals are used for brake control.
Speed sensor rotors have rows of alternating N and S magnetic poles, and their magnetic fields change when the rotors turn.
Each speed sensor detects that magnetic change and sends a pulse signal to the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly).
Tech Tips
When the connectors between the speed sensor and skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) are connected, the following waveform is output.
| DTC No. | Detection Item | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area | Note |

Note
When replacing the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly), perform zero point calibration and store system information.
PROCEDURE
CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (MOMENTARY INTERRUPTION)
Using the GTS, check for any momentary interruption in the wire harness and connector corresponding to a DTC.
| Tester Display | Measurement Item | Range | Normal Condition | Diagnostic Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| RR Speed Sensor Voltage Open | Rear speed sensor RH voltage open detection | Error or Normal | Error: Momentary interruption detected Normal: Momentary interruption not detected |
After a momentary interruption occurs, if there is no momentary interruption for 1 second, it switches from "Error" to "Normal". |
| RL Speed Sensor Voltage Open | Rear speed sensor LH voltage open detection | Error or Normal | Error: Momentary interruption detected Normal: Momentary interruption not detected |
After a momentary interruption occurs, if there is no momentary interruption for 1 second, it switches from "Error" to "Normal". |
| Tester Display |
|---|
| RR Speed Sensor Voltage Open |
| RL Speed Sensor Voltage Open |
| OK |
|---|
| Normal (There are no momentary interruptions.) |
Tech Tips
Perform the above inspection before removing the sensor and connector.

READ VALUE USING GTS (REAR SPEED SENSOR)
Turn the engine switch off.
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Start the engine.
Select the Data List using the GTS.
| Tester Display | Measurement Item | Range | Normal Condition | Diagnostic Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| RR Wheel Speed | Rear wheel speed sensor RH reading | Min.: 0 km/h (0 mph), Max.: 326 km/h (202 mph) | Vehicle stopped: 0 km/h (0 mph) | When driving at constant speed: No large fluctuations |
| RL Wheel Speed | Rear wheel speed sensor LH reading | Min.: 0 km/h (0 mph), Max.: 326 km/h (202 mph) | Vehicle stopped: 0 km/h (0 mph) | When driving at constant speed: No large fluctuations |
| Tester Display |

| RL Wheel Speed |
Check the speed value output from the speed sensor displayed on the GTS.
Tech Tips
Factors that affect the indicated vehicle speed include tire size, tire pressure, and tire wear. The speed indicated on the speedometer has an allowable margin of error. This can be tested using a speedometer tester (calibrated chassis dynamometer). For details about testing and the margin of error, see the reference chart.
| OK |
|---|
| The speed value output from the speed sensor displayed on the GTS is similar to the speed indicated on the speedometer. |
