C1278/78 Abnormal Change in Output Signal of Rear Speed Sensor LH (Test Mode DTC)

DESCRIPTION

When foreign matter adheres to the speed sensor tip or speed sensor rotor, these DTCs are output. An abnormal waveform input from the sensor determines these conditions.

These DTCs may be detected when a malfunction occurs in the connector terminals or wire harness of the speed sensor circuit.

DTCs C1275/75 to C1278/78 will be cleared when the speed sensor sends a wheel speed signal or when Test Mode ends. DTCs from C1275/75 to C1278/78 are output only in Test Mode.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK SPEED SENSOR AND SPEED SENSOR ROTOR SERRATIONS


    1. A01NEZVE11
      Text in Illustration
      *1

      Component without harness connected

      (Skid Control ECU)

      *2 Normal Signal Waveform

      Connect an oscilloscope to each speed sensor terminal of the skid control ECU and body ground.

    2. Check that waveform output when the wheels are rotated.

      OK
      The same waveform is output from all the sensors and there is no noise or interference in the waveform.
    3. Check that the waveform does not change while jiggling a connector or a wire harness.

      OK
      The waveform does not change.

      Tech Tips


      • As the vehicle speed (wheel revolution speed) increases, a cycle of the waveform narrows.

      • When noise is identified in the waveform on the oscilloscope, the erratic signals are generated due to speed sensor rotor scratches, looseness or foreign matter attached to it.


    NG
    OK
  2. RECONFIRM DTC


    1. Turn the power switch off.

    2. Clear the DTCs Click here.
