AUDIO AND VISUAL SYSTEM(for Radio and Display Type) Vehicle Speed Signal Circuit between Radio Receiver and Combination Meter

DESCRIPTION

for Automatic Sound Levelizer (ASL):

• This circuit is necessary for the Automatic Sound Levelizer (ASL) built into the radio and display assembly.

• The Automatic Sound Levelizer (ASL) function automatically adjusts the audio system volume level in order to compensate for increased vehicle noise (vehicle noise tends to increase as vehicle speed increases). The ASL adjusts the volume level based upon vehicle speed signals that it receives from the combination meter assembly.

for "Bluetooth":

• Vehicle speed signals are received from the combination meter assembly and used to cancel "Bluetooth" function operation.

• The radio and display assembly recognizes that the vehicle is being to driven and makes it impossible to connect or register a "Bluetooth" device while driving.

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK VEHICLE SIGNAL (OPERATION CHECK)

   
   

   1. 

      Enter the "Vehicle Signal Check Mode" screen. Refer to Check Vehicle Signal Check Mode in Operation Check Click here.

   2. While driving the vehicle, compare the "SPEED" indicator to the reading on the speedometer. Check if these readings are almost equal.

      Tech Tips

      The combination meter assembly receives the vehicle speed signal from the skid control ECU via CAN communication. Therefore, perform the following inspection referring to values on the Data List of the skid control ECU because it is the source of the vehicle speed signal.

      OK
      Vehicle speed displayed on the "Vehicle Signal Check Mode" screen is almost the same as the actual vehicle speed measured using the intelligent tester (See page Click here).

   
   

   OK

2. INSPECT COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY (OUTPUT WAVEFORM)

   
   
   1. 

      Text in Illustration

      *a	Component with harness connected (Combination Meter Assembly)

      Check the output waveform.

      
      

      1. Remove the combination meter assembly with the connector still connected.

      2. Connect an oscilloscope to terminals F1-6 (+S) and body ground.

      3. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

      4. Turn the wheel slowly.

      5. Check the signal waveform according to the condition(s) in the table below.

         Item	Condition
         Measurement terminal	F1-6 (+S) - Body ground
         Tool setting	5 V/DIV., 20 ms./DIV.
         Vehicle condition	Driving at approx. 20 km/h (12 mph)

         OK
         The waveform is displayed as shown in the illustration.

         Tech Tips

         When the system is functioning normally, one wheel revolution generates 4 pulses. As the vehicle speed increases, the width indicated by (A) in the illustration narrows.

3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (RADIO AND DISPLAY ASSEMBLY - COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY)

   
   

   1. Disconnect the F115 radio and display assembly connector.

   2. Disconnect the F1 combination meter assembly connector.

   3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition F115-17 (SPD) - F1-6 (+S) Always Below 1 Ω F115-17 (SPD) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
