  3. PERFORM TEST MODE (SIGNAL CHECK)


    1. Turn the ignition switch off.

    2. Perform the sensor check in the Test Mode procedure Click here.

      OK
      All Test Mode DTCs are erased.

  4. READ VALUE ON INTELLIGENT TESTER (FRONT SPEED SENSOR)


    1. Turn the ignition switch off.

    2. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    3. Start the engine.

    4. Select the Data List mode on the intelligent tester Click here.

      ABS / VSC / TRC:
      Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      FR Wheel Speed FR wheel speed sensor reading / min.: 0 km/h (0 mph), max.: 326 km/h (202 mph) Actual wheel speed Similar speed as indicated on speedometer
      FL Wheel Speed FL wheel speed sensor reading /min.: 0 km/h (0 mph), max.: 326 km/h (202 mph) Actual wheel speed Similar speed as indicated on speedometer
    5. Check that there is no difference between the speed value output from the speed sensor displayed on the intelligent tester and the speed value displayed on the speedometer when driving the vehicle.

      Tech Tips

      Factors that affect the indicated vehicle speed include tire size, tire inflation, 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 Click here.

      OK
      The speed value output from the speed sensor displayed on the intelligent tester is the same as the actual vehicle speed measured using a speedometer tester (calibrated chassis dynamometer).
