.
- READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (REAR SPEED SENSOR)
- Select the Data List on the Techstream, refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST
.ABS/VSC/TRAC
Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note RR Wheel Speed RR wheel speed sensor / Min.: 0 km/h (0 mph), Max.: 326 km/h (202 mph) Vehicle stopped: 0 km/h (0 mph) When driving at constant speed: No large fluctuations RL Wheel Speed RL wheel speed sensor / Min.: 0 km/h (0 mph), Max.: 326 km/h (202 mph) Vehicle stopped: 0 km/h (0 mph) When driving at constant speed: No large fluctuations - Check the speed value output from the speed sensor displayed on the Techstream.
HINT:
Factors that affect the indicated vehicle speed include tire size, tire inflation, and tire wear. The speed indicated on the speedometer has an allowable margin of error. This can be tested using a speedometer tester (calibrated chassis dynamometer). For details about testing and the margin of error, see Reference Chart, refer to ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION .
OK
The speed value output from the speed sensor displayed on the Techstream is similar to the speed indicated on the speedometer.
NG → See step 5
OK: Go to next step
- Select the Data List on the Techstream, refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST
.
- PERFORM TEST MODE INSPECTION (SIGNAL CHECK)
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Perform the sensor check in the Test Mode procedure, refer to TEST MODE PROCEDURE
.
OK
All Test Mode DTCs are cleared.
NG → See step 5
OK: Go to next step
- RECONFIRM DTC
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Clear the DTCs, refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR .
- Turn the ignition switch to ON (READY).
- Drive the vehicle at a speed of 10 km/h (6 mph) or more for at least 60 seconds.
- Check if the same DTC is recorded, refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR
.

- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Check the speed sensor installation.
OK
There is no clearance between the sensor and the rear axle carrier.
The installation bolt is tightened properly, refer to INSTALLATION - Step 1 .
NG → See step 11
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK REAR SPEED SENSOR TIP AND REAR SPEED SENSOR ROTOR
- Remove the rear speed sensor and rear speed sensor rotor, refer to REMOVAL and, refer to REMOVAL ).
- Check the speed sensor tip and rear speed sensor rotor.
OK
The sensor tip and rotor are free of scratches, oil, and foreign matter.
HINT:
If the rear speed sensor rotor needs to be replaced, replace it together with the outboard joint shaft assembly.
NOTE:- If no damage to the speed sensor tip is found during this inspection, do not replace the speed sensor.
- Check the speed sensor signal after cleaning or replacement, refer to TEST MODE PROCEDURE .
NG → CLEAN OR REPLACE REAR SPEED SENSOR OR REAR SPEED SENSOR ROTOR
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SKID CONTROL ECU - REAR SPEED SENSOR)
- Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connectors.
- Disconnect the A44 or A45 skid control ECU connector and the rear speed sensor connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
for RH
for LH
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition A45-22 (RR+) - N20-1 (RR+) Always Below 1 Ω A45-22 (RR+) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher A45-21 (RR-) - N20-2 (RR-) Always Below 1 Ω A45-21 (RR-) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition A44-34 (RL+) - O39-1 (RL+) Always Below 1 Ω A44-34 (RL+) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher A44-35 (RL-) - O39-2 (RL-) Always Below 1 Ω A44-35 (RL-) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*1 Front view of wire harness connector

OK: Go to next step
- CHECK REAR SPEED SENSOR AND REAR SPEED SENSOR ROTOR SERRATIONS
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Reconnect the skid control ECU connectors and the rear speed sensor connectors.
- Connect an oscilloscope to the rear speed sensor terminal of the skid control ECU and body ground.
- Check the waveform output when the wheels are rotated.
OK
The same waveform is output from all the sensors and there is no noise or interference in the waveform.
TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*1 Component with harness connected
(Skid Control ECU)*2 Normal Signal Waveform HINT:
- As the vehicle speed (wheel revolution speed) increases, the wavelength shortens.
- When noise is identified in the waveform on the oscilloscope, the erratic signals are generated due to speed sensor rotor scratches, looseness or attached foreign matter.
NOTE:Check the speed sensor signal after cleaning or replacement, refer to TEST MODE PROCEDURE .
HINT:
If the rear speed sensor rotor needs to be replaced, replace it together with the outboard joint shaft assembly.
NG → CLEAN OR REPLACE REAR SPEED SENSOR OR REAR SPEED SENSOR ROTOR
