DESCRIPTION
The stereo component amplifier assembly receives a vehicle speed signal from the No. 3 meter circuit plate to control the ASL function.
Tech Tips
A voltage of 12 V or 5 V is output from each ECU and then input to the No. 3 meter circuit plate. The signal is changed to a pulse signal at the transistor in the No. 3 meter circuit plate. 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.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
PROCEDURE
INSPECT NO. 3 METER CIRCUIT PLATE (OUTPUT WAVEFORM)
| *a | Component with harness connected (No. 3 Meter Circuit Plate) |
Check the output waveform.
Remove the No. 3 meter circuit plate with the connector(s) still connected.
Connect an oscilloscope to terminal L27-7 (+S) and body ground.
Turn the power switch on (IG).
Turn a wheel slowly.
Check the signal waveform according to the condition(s) in the table below.
| Item | Condition |
|---|---|
| Measurement terminal | L27-7 (+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.
