Speedometer Malfunction: Procedure
- PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM (SPEED METER)
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch ON and turn the tester ON.
- Enter the following menus : Body Electrical / Combination Meter / Active Test.
Body Electrical / Combination Meter / Active Test:
Tester Display Test Part Control Range Speed Meter Operation 0/40/80/120 mph
0/40/80/120/160/200 km/h- OK
Vehicle speed displayed on the tester is approximately the same as that of the speedometer reading.
NG → See step 5
OK: Go to next step
- READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (SPEED METER)
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch ON and the tester ON.
- Select the item below from the Data List, and read the value displayed on the Techstream.
Body Electrical / Combination Meter / Data List:
Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note Vehicle Speed Meter Vehicle speed / Min.: 0 km/h (0mph), Max.: 255 km/h(158mph) Almost same as vehicle speed
(When vehicle is driving)- OK
Vehicle speed displayed on the tester is approximately the same as the actual vehicle speed.
NG → See step 3
OK → See step 6
- INSPECT SPEEDOMETER SENSOR

- Remove the speedometer sensor.
- Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 1 and the negative(-) lead to terminal 2.
- Connect the positive (+) lead from the tester to terminal 3 and the negative (-) lead to terminal 2.
- Rotate the shaft.
- Check that the voltage output between terminals 2 and 3 varies between 0V and 11V.
- Reinstall the speedometer sensor.
NG → See step 7
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SPEEDOMETER SENSOR - COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY)
- Disconnect the D1 combination meter assembly connector.
- Disconnect the C21 speedometer sensor connector.
- Measure the resistance
Standard resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition D1-17 (SI) - C21-3 (SI) Always Below 1 Ω C21-2 (SE) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω - Reconnect the combination meter assembly connector.
- Measure the voltage
Standard voltage
Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition C21-1 (IG+) - Body ground Ignition switch ON 11 to 14V - Reconnect the combination meter assembly and speedometer sensor connectors.
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK → See step 8
- REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY. Refer to REMOVAL
- USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK. Refer to HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING
- REPLACE SPEEDOMETER SENSOR. Refer to REMOVAL
- REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY. Refer to REMOVAL
