METER / GAUGE SYSTEM Speedometer Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

The combination meter receives vehicle speed signals from the skid control ECU via the CAN communication line. The wheel speed sensors output voltages that vary according to the vehicle speed. The skid control ECU supplies power to the wheel speed sensors. The skid control ECU calculates the vehicle speed based on the pulses of the voltage.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Note

If the vehicle speed is outside the allowable range when tested, perform the on-vehicle inspection Click here.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM


    1. Check if a CAN communication DTC is output Click here [for LHD], Click here [for RHD]).

      Result
      Result Proceed to
      CAN communication DTC is not output A
      CAN communication DTC is output (for LHD) B
      CAN communication DTC is output (for RHD) C

  2. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING GTS (SPEED METER OPERATION)


    1. Use the Active Test to check the operation of the speedometer Click here.

      • *1: for mph

      • *2: for km/h

      OK
      Speedometer indication is normal.

    NG

    REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY Click here

    OK

  3. READ VALUE USING GTS (VEHICLE SPEED METER)


    1. Use the Data List to check if the speedometer is operating properly Click here.

      Combination Meter
      Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      Vehicle Speed Meter Vehicle speed/Min.: 0 mph (0 km/ h), Max.: 255 km/h (158 mph) Almost same as actual vehicle speed -
      OK
      Vehicle speed displayed on the GTS is almost the same as the actual vehicle speed measured using a speedometer tester (calibrated chassis dynamometer).

    NG

    REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY Click here

    OK

  4. READ VALUE USING GTS (FR/FL/RR/RL WHEEL SPEED)


    1. Use the Data List to check the wheel speed Click here.

      ABS/VSC/TRAC
      Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      FR Wheel Speed Vehicle speed/Min.: 0 mph (0 km/ h), Max.: 326 km/h (202 mph) Almost same as actual vehicle speed measured using speedometer tester -
      FL Wheel Speed Vehicle speed/Min.: 0 mph (0 km/ h), Max.: 326 km/h (202 mph) -
      RR Wheel Speed Vehicle speed/Min.: 0 mph (0 km/ h), Max.: 326 km/h (202 mph) -
      RL Wheel Speed Vehicle speed/Min.: 0 mph (0 km/ h), Max.: 326 km/h (202 mph) -
      OK
      Vehicle speed displayed on the GTS is almost the same as the actual vehicle speed measured using a speedometer tester (calibrated chassis dynamometer).

    NG

    GO TO VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM Click here

    OK

  5. CHECK COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY


    1. Replace the combination meter assembly with a new or normally functioning one Click here.

      OK
      The operation of the speedometer returns to normal.

    NG

    REPLACE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY Click here

    OK

    END (COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY WAS DEFECTIVE)
