DTC Code DTC Name
C1271 Low Output Signal of Front Speed Sensor RH (Test Mode DTC)
C1272 Low Output Signal of Front Speed Sensor LH (Test Mode DTC)
C1330 Open in Front Speed Sensor RH
C1331 Open in Front Speed Sensor LH
C1464 Front Speed Sensor RH
C1465 Front Speed Sensor LH

DESCRIPTION

Each speed sensor detects wheel speed and sends signals to the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly). These signals are used by the ABS.

The speed sensor rotors have rows of alternating N and S magnetic poles. The speed sensors use the frequency of output pulses to detect the vehicle speed. Because the sensor outputs digital pulses, it can detect the vehicle speed even when the vehicle is nearly stationary.

DTCs C1271 and C1272 are cleared when the speed sensor sends a vehicle speed signal or when Test Mode ends. DTCs C1271 and C1272 are output only in Test Mode.

Tech Tips

When the connectors between the speed sensor and skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) are connected, the following waveform is output.

    • The difference between the speed of the fastest wheel and the speed of the slowest wheel is 5% or more of vehicle speed. (If the speed of any wheel is less than 5 km/h (3 mph), a speed difference of up to 15% is allowable.)

PROCEDURE


  1. READ VALUE USING GTS (FRONT SPEED SENSOR)


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Start the engine.

    3. Select the Data List on the GTS Click here.

      ABS/VSC/TRC
      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 km/h (202 mph) Vehicle stopped: 0 km/h (0 mph) When driving at constant speed: No large fluctuations
      FL Wheel Speed Front wheel speed sensor LH reading/ Min.: 0 km/h (0 mph), Max.: 326 km/h (202 mph) Vehicle stopped: 0 km/h (0 mph) When driving at constant speed: No large fluctuations
    4. Check the speed value output from the speed sensor displayed on the GTS.

      Tech Tips

      Factors that affect the indicated vehicle speed include tire size, tire pressure, 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 GTS is similar to the speed indicated on the speedometer.
