  3. READ VALUE USING GTS (RR WHEEL SPEED) 
    1. Perform a road test.
    2. Check the rear speed sensor RH output value.

      Chassis > Brake/EPB > Data List 

      Tester Display Measurement Item Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      RR Wheel Speed Rear wheel speed sensor RH reading Min.: 0.0 km/h (0 mph)
      Max.: 6553.5 km/h (4072 mph)
      Vehicle stopped: 0.0 km/h (0 mph) When driving at constant speed: No large fluctuations

      Chassis > Brake/EPB > Data List 

      Tester Display
      RR Wheel Speed

      OK

      The output value changes in accordance with the vehicle speed.

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    OK 

    USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK. Refer to  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING [11/2021 - ] 

    Result: 

    NG

      *a Front view of skid control sensor wire RH (No. 1 parking brake wire assembly)
      *b to Sensor Side Connector
      *c to Vehicle Side Connector
    2. Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connectors.

      OK

      The connector is securely connected.

    3. Disconnect the f2 and fG1 skid control sensor wire RH (No. 1 parking brake wire assembly) connector.
    4. Check both the connector case and the terminals for deformation and corrosion.

      OK

      No deformation or corrosion.

    5. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      f2-1 (RA+) - fG1-4 (RR+) Always Below 1 Ω
      f2-1 (RA+) or fG1-4 (RR+) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher
      f2-2 (RA-) - fG1-3 (RR-) Always Below 1 Ω
