PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK FOR DTC


    1. Clear the DTC Click here.

    2. Turn the engine switch off.

    3. Turn the engine switch on (IG) again.

    4. Drive the vehicle, accelerate to a speed of 20 km/h (12 mph) or more, and check if the speed sensor DTC (brake control system DTC) is output.

      Result
      Result Proceed to
      Brake control system DTC (speed sensor or deceleration sensor DTC) is not output A
      Brake control system DTC (speed sensor or deceleration sensor DTC) is output B

      Tech Tips

      When DTCs indicating a CAN communication system malfunction are output, repair the CAN communication system before repairing each corresponding sensor.

  2. READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (SPEED SENSOR SIGNAL)


    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

    3. Turn the intelligent tester on.

    4. Enter the following menus: Chassis / 4WD / Data List.

    5. Read the value displayed on the intelligent tester.

      Standard
      Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      FR Wheel Speed

      FR Wheel Speed /

      Min.: 0 mph (0 km/h),

      Max.: 202 mph (326.4 km/h)

      Actual wheel speed Almost no difference from the speedometer
      FL Wheel Speed

      FL Wheel Speed /

      Min.: 0 mph (0 km/h),

      Max.: 202 mph (326.4 km/h)

      Actual wheel speed Almost no difference from the speedometer
      RR Wheel Speed

      RR Wheel Speed /

      Min.: 0 mph (0 km/h),

      Max.: 202 mph (326.4 km/h)

      Actual wheel speed Almost no difference from the speedometer
      RL Wheel Speed

      RL Wheel Speed /

      Min.: 0 mph (0 km/h),

      Max.: 202 mph (326.4 km/h)

      Actual wheel speed Almost no difference from the speedometer
      OK
      The speed value output from the speed sensor displayed on the intelligent tester is the same as the actual vehicle speed measured using a speedometer tester (calibrated chassis dynamometer).

    NG
    OK
  3. READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (DECELERATION SENSOR SIGNAL)


    1. Read the value displayed on the intelligent tester.

      Standard
      Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      Forward and Rearward G

      Deceleration sensor (Forward and Rearward G) /

      Min.: -25.10 m/s2

      Max.: 24.90 m/s2

      Approximately 0 +/-0.13 while stationary -
      OK
      The deceleration sensor output value is normal.
