VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:C1271, C1272, C1275, C1276, C1413, C1414

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)
C1275 Abnormal Change in Output Signal of Front Speed Sensor RH (Test Mode DTC)
C1276 Abnormal Change in Output Signal of Front Speed Sensor LH (Test Mode DTC)
C1413 Front Speed Sensor RH Output Malfunction
C1414 Front Speed Sensor LH Output Malfunction

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.

Hall IC type 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, C1272, C1275 and C1276 are cleared when the speed sensor sends a vehicle speed signal or when Test Mode ends. DTCs C1271, C1272, C1275 and C1276 are output only in Test Mode.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (MOMENTARY INTERRUPTION)


    1. Using the GTS, check for any momentary interruption in the wire harness and connector corresponding to a DTC.

  2. READ VALUE USING GTS (FRONT SPEED SENSOR)


    1. Turn the engine switch off.

    2. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    3. Start the engine.

    4. Select the Data List using the GTS.

    5. 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.

      Tech Tips


      • The front speed sensor rotor and front speed sensor are incorporated into the front axle hub sub-assembly.

        If the front speed sensor rotor needs to be replaced, replace the front axle hub sub-assembly with front speed sensor.

      • If troubleshooting has been carried out according to Problem Symptoms Table, refer back to the table and proceed to the next step before replacing parts.
