AUDIO AND VISUAL SYSTEM(for Radio Receiver Type) Vehicle Speed Signal Circuit between Radio Receiver and Combination Meter

DESCRIPTION

This circuit is necessary for the Automatic Sound Levelizer (ASL) built into the radio receiver assembly.

The Automatic Sound Levelizer (ASL) function automatically adjusts the audio system volume level in order to compensate for increased vehicle noise (vehicle noise tends to increase as vehicle speed increases). The ASL adjusts the volume level based upon vehicle speed signals that it receives from the combination meter assembly.

Tech Tips


  • A voltage of 12 V or 5 V is output from each ECU and then input to the combination meter assembly. The signal is changed to a pulse signal at the transistor in the combination meter assembly. Each ECU controls its respective system based on this pulse signal.

  • If a short occurs in any of the ECUs or in the wire harness connected to an ECU, all systems in the following diagram will not operate normally.

PROCEDURE


  1. INSPECT COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY (OUTPUT WAVEFORM)


    1. Check the output waveform.

      A01T9WDC03
      *a

      Component with harness connected

      (Combination Meter Assembly)

      		 - -

      1. Remove the combination meter assembly with the connector still connected.

      2. Connect an oscilloscope to terminal E46-6 (+S) and body ground.

      3. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

      4. Turn a wheel slowly.

      5. Check the signal waveform according to the condition(s) in the table below.

        Item Condition
        Measurement terminal E46-6 (+S) - Body ground
        Tool setting 5 V/DIV., 20 ms./DIV.
        Vehicle condition Wheel being rotated
        OK
        The waveform is similar to that shown in the illustration.

        Tech Tips

        When the system is functioning normally, one wheel revolution generates 4 pulses. As the vehicle speed increases, the width indicated by (A) in the illustration narrows.
