| DTC Code | DTC Name |
|---|---|
| C0200/31 | Front Speed Sensor RH Circuit |
| C0205/32 | Front Speed Sensor LH Circuit |
| C1271/71 | Low Output Signal of Front Speed Sensor RH (Test Mode DTC) |
| C1272/72 | Low Output Signal of Front Speed Sensor LH (Test Mode DTC) |
DESCRIPTION
The speed sensor detects the wheel speed and sends the appropriate signals to the skid control ECU. These signals are used for the ABS control system. This speed sensor contains a sensor IC, which consists of 2 MREs (Magnetic Resistance Elements). The speed sensor rotor, which consists of 48 sets of N and S poles arranged in a circle, is integrated with the inner race of the hub bearing.
To detect the rotation direction, the output waves are used to determine the relationship of the pulses that are generated by the 2 MREs. Upon receiving this signal, the sensor IC outputs a forward or backward waveform to the ECU.
DTCs C1271/71 and C1272/72 will be deleted when the speed sensor sends a vehicle speed signal or when Test Mode ends. DTCs C1271/71 and C1272/72 are output only in Test Mode.
| DTC Code | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| C0200/31 C0205/32 |
Any of the following is detected:
|
|
| C1271/71 C1272/72 |
Detected only during Test Mode. |

Tech Tips
DTCs C0200/31 and C1271/71 are for the front speed sensor RH.
DTCs C0205/32 and C1272/72 are for the front speed sensor LH.

READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (FRONT SPEED SENSOR)
Turn the engine switch off.
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Start the engine.
Select the Data List mode on the intelligent tester Click here.
| Tester Display | Measurement Item / Range | Normal Condition | Diagnostic Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| FR Wheel Speed | Front wheel speed sensor RH reading / min.: 0 km/h (0 mph), max.: 326.4 km/h (202 mph) | Actual wheel speed | Similar speed as indicated on speedometer |
| FL Wheel Speed | Front wheel speed sensor LH reading / min.: 0 km/h (0 mph), max.: 326.4 km/h (202 mph) | Actual wheel speed | Similar speed as indicated on speedometer |
Check that there is almost 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 almost the same as the actual vehicle speed. |
| Tester Display | Measurement Item / Range | Normal Condition | Diagnostic Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| FR Wheel Direction | Front wheel RH direction / FORWARD or BACK | FORWARD: Forward BACK: Backward |
