  3. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (FRONT SPEED SENSOR) 
    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    2. Start the engine.
    3. Turn the Techstream on.
    4. Enter the following menus: Chassis / Brake / Data List.
    5. According to the display on the Techstream, read the Data List.
      CHASSIS > BRAKE > DATA LIST

      Tester Display Measurement Item Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      FR Wheel Speed Front wheel speed sensor RH reading Min.: 0.0 km/h (0.0 mph)
      Max.: 6553.5 km/h (4072 mph)
      Vehicle stopped: 0.0 km/h (0.0 mph) When driving at constant speed: No large fluctuations
      FL Wheel Speed Front wheel speed sensor LH reading Min.: 0.0 km/h (0.0 mph)
      Max.: 6553.5 km/h (4072 mph)
      Vehicle stopped: 0.0 km/h (0.0 mph) When driving at constant speed: No large fluctuations
    6. Check that there is no difference between the speed value output from the speed sensor displayed on the Techstream and the speed value displayed on the speedometer when driving the vehicle.

      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 the reference chart.

      Refer to OPERATION CHECK [08/2019 - 08/2021] , or refer to OPERATION CHECK [08/2021 - 08/2022] , or refer to OPERATION CHECK [08/2022 - ]

      OK

      The speed value output from the speed sensor displayed on the Techstream is the same as the actual vehicle speed measured using a speedometer tester (calibrated chassis dynamometer).

      HINT: 

      If troubleshooting has been carried out according to the Problem Symptoms Table, refer back to the table and proceed to the next step.

      Refer to PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE [08/2019 - ]
