Circuit Test (Montero Sport)

  1. Disconnect VSS harness connector. Check VSS. See VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR (VSS) . Replace sensor as necessary. If sensor is okay, go to next step.
  2. Turn ignition on. Check voltage between ground and VSS harness-side connector terminal No. 3 (Yellow/White wire). See WIRING DIAGRAMS . If voltage reading is 4.5 volts, problem is intermittent. If voltage reading is not 4.5 volts, go to next step.
  3. Check VSS harness connector. Repair as necessary. If connector is okay, check circuit between VSS and instrument cluster. See WIRING DIAGRAMS . Repair as necessary. If circuit is okay, go to next step.
  4. Check voltage between ground and VSS harness-side connector terminal No. 1 (Black/White wire). See WIRING DIAGRAMS . Battery voltage should be present. If battery voltage is present, problem is intermittent. If battery voltage is not present, go to next step.
  5. Check harness connectors to VSS and ignition switch. See WIRING DIAGRAMS . Repair as necessary. If connectors are okay, check circuit between VSS and ignition switch. Repair as necessary. If circuit is okay, go to next step.
  6. Turn ignition off. Check resistance between ground and VSS harness-side connector terminal No. 2 (Black wire). See WIRING DIAGRAMS . Continuity should be present. If continuity is present, problem is intermittent. If continuity is not present, check circuit between sensor harness-side connector terminal No. 2 and ground. Repair as necessary. If circuit is okay, go to next step.
  7. Remove instrument cluster. See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER  under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Check voltage between ground and instrument cluster harness-side connector terminal No. 53 (Red/Black wire). See WIRING DIAGRAMS . Battery voltage should be present. If battery voltage is present, go to step  9. If battery voltage is not present, go to next step.
  8. Check harness connector to instrument cluster. Repair as necessary. If connector is okay, check circuit between instrument cluster harness connector and fusible link No. 6. See WIRING DIAGRAMS . Repair as necessary. If circuit is okay, go to next step.
  9. Check voltage between ground and instrument cluster harness-side connector terminal No. 24 (Black/White wire). See WIRING DIAGRAMS . Battery voltage should be present. If battery voltage is present, problem is intermittent. If battery voltage is not present, check harness connector. Repair as necessary.
