DESCRIPTION

The speed sensor detects wheel speed and transmits the appropriate signals to the ECU. These signals are used for control of the ABS control system. The front and rear rotors have 48 serrations each.

When the rotors rotate, the magnetic field generated by the permanent magnet in the speed sensor induces an AC voltage.

Since the frequency of this AC voltage changes in direct proportion to the speed of the rotor, the frequency is used by the ECU to detect the speed of each wheel.

DTCs C1271/71 to C1276/76 can be deleted when the speed sensor sends a vehicle speed signal or the Test Mode ends. DTCs C1271/71 to C1276/ 76 are output only in the Test Mode.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Tech Tips

Start the inspection from step 1 when using the intelligent tester and start from step 3 when not using the intelligent tester.

PROCEDURE


  1. READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (MOMENTARY INTERRUPTION OF FRONT SPEED SENSOR)


    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

      FR Speed Open Speed sensor open detection (FR) / OPN DET or NORMAL

      OPN DET: Momentary interruption

      NORMAL: Normal

      		 -
      FL Speed Open Speed sensor open detection (FL) / OPN DET or NORMAL

      OPN DET: Momentary interruption

      NORMAL: Normal

      		 -

    4. Check for any momentary interruption in the wire harness and connector corresponding to a DTC Click here.

      OK
      There are no momentary interruptions.

      Tech Tips

  2. READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (FRONT SPEED SENSOR)


    1. Select the DATA LIST mode on the intelligent tester.

      ABS:
      Item (Display) Measurement Item / Range (Display) Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      FR Wheel Speed Wheel speed sensor (FR) reading / min.: 0 mph (0 km/h), max.: 202 mph (326 km/h) Actual wheel speed Similar speed as indicated on speedometer
      FL Wheel Speed Wheel speed sensor (FL) reading / min.: 0 mph (0 km/h), max.: 202 mph (326 km/h) Actual wheel speed Similar speed as indicated on speedometer

    2. Check that there is the speed value output from the speed sensor displayed on the intelligent tester and the speed value displayed on the speedometer are almost the same when driving the vehicle.

      OK
      The speed value output from the speed sensor displayed on the intelligent tester is the same as the actual vehicle speed.

  8. INSPECT SPEED SENSOR AND SENSOR ROTOR SERRATIONS


    1. A01BAEME03

      Connect the oscilloscope to terminals FR+ - FR- or FL+ - FL- of the skid control ECU.

    2. Drive the vehicle at about 19 mph (30 km/h), and check the signal waveform.

      OK
      A waveform as shown in the figure should be output.

      Tech Tips


      • As vehicle speed (wheel rotation speed) increases, the width of the waveform narrows and the fluctuation in the output voltage becomes greater.

      • When noise is identified in the waveform on the oscilloscope, error signals are generated due to rotor scratches, looseness or foreign matter attached to the speed sensor.
