DTC 1306: Vehicle Speed Pulse (With Display Audio) (2017)

NOTE: 

  1. Problem verification

    -1. Clear the hard error codes.

    - 2. Test-drive the vehicle at steady speed more than 20 km/h (12 mph) for about 1 minute.

    - 3. Check for hard error codes.

    Is DTC 1306 indicated?

    YES 

    The failure is duplicated, go to step 2.

    NO 

    Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time.

  2. Audio-Navigation unit operation check

    -1. Go into the System Diagnostic Mode, and select the Vehicle Status in the Unit Check.

    - 2. With the help of an assistant test-drive the vehicle, and watch the VSP signal.

    Does the VSP signal change from [0] (stopped) to [1] (driving) as you drive?

    YES 

    Replace the audio-navigation unit - Refer to: Audio-Navigation Unit Removal and Installation (With Display Audio) (2017) .

    NO 

    Go to step 3.

  3. Determine possible failure area (VSP line, others)

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

    - 2. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.

    - 3. Disconnect the following connector.

    PCM connector A (50P)

    - 4. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

    - 5. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

    Test condition Vehicle ON mode
      PCM connector A (50P): disconnected
     
    Test point 1 PCM connector A (51P) No. 35 - Refer to: PCM Connector for Inputs and Outputs (2017)
    Test point 2 Body ground

    Is there about 5.0 V?

    YES 

    The VSP wire is OK. Go to step 4.

    NO 

    Go to step 5.

  4. PCM check

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

    - 2. Reconnect PCM connector A (50P).

    - 3. Raise the vehicle on a lift.

    - 4. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

    - 5. Block or hold one tire so that it cannot rotate, and slowly rotate the other front tire.

    - 6. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

    Test condition Vehicle ON mode, with the front tire slowly rotating
     
    Test point 1 Audio-navigation unit connector C (24P) No. 14 - Refer to: Audio-Navigation Unit Connector for Inputs and Outputs (With Display Audio) (2017)
    Test point 2 Body ground

    Does the voltage pulse between 0 V and 5 V as you rotate the tire?

    YES 

    Replace the audio-navigation unit - Refer to: Audio-Navigation Unit Removal and Installation (With Display Audio) (2017) .

    NO 

    Substitute a known-good PCM, and recheck - Refer to: PCM Removal and Installation (2017) .

  5. Open wire check (VSP line)

    -1. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

    Test condition Vehicle ON mode
      PCM connector A (50P): disconnected
     
    Test point 1 Audio-navigation unit connector C (24P) No. 14 - Refer to: Audio-Navigation Unit Connector for Inputs and Outputs (With Display Audio) (2017)
    Test point 2 Body ground

    Is there about 5.0 V?

    YES 

    Repair an open in the wire between the audio-navigation unit and the PCM.

    NO 

    The VSP wire is not open. Go to step 6.

  6. Shorted wire check (VSP line)

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

    - 2. Disconnect the following connector.

    Audio-navigation unit connector C (24P)

    NOTE:  Eject the disc before disconnecting the audio-navigation unit to prevent damaging the DVD player load mechanism.

    - 3. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

    Test condition Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
      PCM connector A (50P): disconnected
      Audio-navigation unit connector C (24P): disconnected
     
    Test point 1 Audio-navigation unit connector C (24P) No. 14 - Refer to: Audio-Navigation Unit Connector for Inputs and Outputs (With Display Audio) (2017)
    Test point 2 Body ground

    Is there continuity?

    YES 

    There is a short to body ground in the wire between the audio-navigation unit and the PCM.

    NO 

    Replace the audio-navigation unit - Refer to: Audio-Navigation Unit Removal and Installation (With Display Audio) (2017) .
