| 42 | Vehicle Speed Sensor Signal Circuit Malfunction |
DESCRIPTION
The speed sensor for skid control ECU detects the wheel speed and sends the appropriate signals to the skid control ECU.
The ECM converts these signals into a 4-pulse signal and outputs it to the combination meter.
After this signal is converted into a more precise rectangular waveform by the waveform shaping circuit inside the combination meter, it is then transmitted to the ECM. The ECM determines the vehicle speed based on the frequency of these pulse signals.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
PROCEDURE
CHECK OPERATION OF SPEEDOMETER
Drive the vehicle and check if the operation of the speedometer in the combination meter is normal.
| OK |
|---|
| The speedometer operates normally according to vehicle speed. |
Tech Tips
The vehicle speed sensor is operating normally if the speedometer display is normal.

INSPECT ECM (CHECK VOLTAGE)
Shift the shift lever to the neutral position.
Jack up the vehicle.
Turn the ignition switch ON.
Measure the voltage between the terminals SPD and E1 of the ECM connector when the wheel is turned slowly.
