WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2025 Lexus NX 350h, 2024 Lexus NX 350h, 2023 Lexus NX 350h, and 2022 Lexus NX 350h. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT)
- Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connectors.
OK
The connector is securely connected.
- Disconnect the A107 front speed sensor LH connector.
- Check both the connector case and the terminals for deformation and corrosion.
OK
No deformation or corrosion.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition A107-5 (FL+) - A107-6 (FL-) Ignition switch ON 11 to 14 V Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
OK
REPLACE FRONT SPEED SENSOR LH. Refer to REMOVAL [11/2021 - 03/2024] , or refer to REMOVAL [03/2024 - ]
Result:
NG
See step 2
- Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connectors.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT)
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connectors.
OK
