Inspection Procedure
HINT:
Start the inspection from step 1 when using the intelligent tester and start from step 4 when not using the intelligent tester.
- PERFORM ACTIVE TEST BY INTELLIGENT TESTER
- Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Turn the tester ON.
- Enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / OBD/MOBD / METER/ACTIVE TEST.
- Check the values by referring to the table below.
METER:
METER SPECIFICATIONItem Test Details Diagnostic Note SPEED METER 0, 40 (24), 80 (48), 120 (72), 160 (96), 200 (120) km/h (mph) - OK: Needle indication is within the allowable range.
NG: REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY
OK: Go to Next Step
- READ VALUE OF INTELLIGENT TESTER
- Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Turn the tester ON.
- Enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / OBD/MOBD / METER / DATA LIST.
- Check the values by referring to the table below.
METER:
METER SPECIFICATIONItem Measurement Item/Range (Display) Normal Condition Diagnostic Note SPEED METER Vehicle speed/Min.: 0 km/h (0 mph), Max.: 255 km/h (158 mph) Almost same as actual speed (When driving) - OK: Vehicle speed displayed on the tester is almost the same as the actual vehicle speed measured using a speedometer tester (calibrated chassis dynamometer).
NG: Go to step 3
OK: REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY
- READ VALUE OF INTELLIGENT TESTER
- Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Turn the tester ON.
- Enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / OBD/MOBD / ABS/TRAC/VSC / DATA LIST.
- Check the values by referring to the table below.
ABS/TRAC/VSC:
ABS/TRAC/VSC REFERENCEItem Measurement Item/Range (Display) Normal Condition Diagnostic Note (FL/FR/RL/RR) WHEEL SPD Vehicle speed/Min.: 0 km/h (0 mph), Max.: 326 km/h (202 mph) Almost same as actual speed (When driving) - OK: Vehicle speed displayed on the tester is almost the same as the actual vehicle speed.
NG: GO TO BRAKE CONTROL
OK: Go to Next Step
- INSPECT COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY
- Disconnect the S1 connector.
- Measure the voltage according to the value (s) in the table below.
Standard voltage
VOLTAGE SPECIFICATIONTester Connection Condition Specified Condition S1-12 (SP1) - Body ground Turn the ignition switch to the ON position. 10 to 14 V
NG: Go to step 6
OK: Go to Next Step
- INSPECT COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY
- Check the input signal waveform.
- Remove the combination meter assembly with connector (s) still connected.
- Connect the oscilloscope to terminal C9-18 (SPEED SIGNAL) and body ground.
- Start the engine.
- Check the signal waveform according to the condition (s) in the table below.WAVEFORM REFERENCE
Item Condition Tool setting 5 V/DIV., 20 ms/DIV. Vehicle condition Driving at approx. 20 km/h (12 mph) OK: The waveform is displayed as shown in Fig 2 .
HINT:
As the vehicle speed increases, the cycle of the signal waveform narrows.
NG: REPLACE SKID CONTROL ECU
OK: REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY
- Check the input signal waveform.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER - SKID CONTROL ECU)
- Disconnect the C9 and S1 connectors.
- Measure the resistance according to the value (s) in the table below.
Standard resistance
RESISTANCE REFERENCE CHARTTester Connection Condition Specified Condition C9-18 (SPEED SIGNAL) -S1-12 (SP1) Always Below 1 Ω C9-18 (SPEED SIGNAL) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY
