    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 → See step   2 

    OK → See step   5 

  2. INSPECT COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY (OUTPUT WAVEFORM) 
    1. 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 engine 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
        TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION

        *1 Component with harness connected
        (Combination Meter Assembly)

        OK

        The waveform is similar to that shown in the illustration.

        HINT: 

        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 → See step   6 

    OK: Go to next step 

  3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR 
    1. Disconnect the display and navigation module display 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
      TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION

      *1 Front view of wire harness connector
      (to Display and Navigation Module Display)
      *2 Front view of wire harness connector
      (to Combination Meter Assembly)

    NG → See step   4 

    OK → See step   7 

  4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (DISPLAY AND NAVIGATION MODULE DISPLAY - JUNCTION BLOCK) 
    1. Disconnect the display and navigation module display connector.

    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
      TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION

      *1 Front view of wire harness connector
      (to Display and Navigation Module Display)
      *2 Front view of wire harness connector
      (to Junction Block)

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (DISPLAY AND NAVIGATION MODULE DISPLAY - JUNCTION BLOCK) 

    OK → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (JUNCTION BLOCK) 

  5. REPLACE DISPLAY AND NAVIGATION MODULE DISPLAY. Refer to  REMOVAL 
  6. GO TO METER / GAUGE SYSTEM. Refer to  Speed Signal Circuit 
  7. REPLACE DISPLAY AND NAVIGATION MODULE DISPLAY. Refer to  REMOVAL
