NAVIGATION SYSTEM (for DVD), Diagnostic DTC:B15C2

DTC Code DTC Name
B15C2 Speed Signal Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

The display and navigation module display receives a vehicle speed signal from the combination meter assembly and information about the GPS antenna, and then adjusts vehicle position.

The display and navigation module display stores this DTC when the difference between the speed information that the GPS antenna receives and the SPD pulse received from the combination meter assembly becomes large.

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 the respective systems based on the pulse signal.

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

DTC No. DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
B15C2 A difference between the GPS speed and SPD pulse is detected.
  • Combination meter assembly

  • Wire harness or connector

  • Junction block

  • Display and navigation module display

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK VEHICLE SENSOR (OPERATION CHECK)


    1. A01NHA3

      Enter the "Check GPS&Vehicle Sensor" (Vehicle Sensors) Click here.

    2. While driving the vehicle, compare the "Speed" indicator to the reading on the speedometer. Check if these readings are almost equal.

      OK
      The readings are almost equal.

    NG
    OK
  2. INSPECT COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY (OUTPUT WAVEFORM)


    1. A01NCPVE19

      *1

      Component with harness connected

      (Combination Meter Assembly)

      Check the output waveform.


      1. Remove the combination meter assembly with the connector(s) still connected.

      2. Connect an oscilloscope to terminal F15-3 (+S) and body ground.

      3. Turn the power switch on (IG).

      4. Turn a wheel slowly.

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

        Item Condition
        Measurement terminal F15-3 (+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.


    NG
    OK
  3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR


    1. A01NHNPE01

      Disconnect the display and navigation module display connector.

    2. A01NH0RE10

      Disconnect the combination meter assembly connector.

    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      G4-18 (SPD) - F15-3 (+S) Always Below 1 Ω

    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      G4-18 (SPD) - F93-47 Always Below 1 Ω

    NG
    OK
