Inspection Procedure

NOTE: When replacing the skid control ECU, perform initialization of linear solenoid valve and calibration (see INITIALIZATION ).

HINT:

Start the inspection from "CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR" when using the intelligent tester and start from "PERFORM TEST MODE" when not using the intelligent tester.

  1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (MOMENTARY INTERRUPTION) 
    1. Using the intelligent tester, check for any momentary interruption in the wire harness and connector corresponding to a DTC (see CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS ).

    ABS / VSC: 

    NORMAL CONDITION CHART

    Item (Display) Measurement Item / Range (Display) Normal Condition
    RR SPD OPN RR speed sensor open detection / ERROR or NORMAL ERROR: Momentary interruption NORMAL: Normal
    RL SPD OPN RL speed sensor open detection / ERROR or NORMAL ERROR: Momentary interruption NORMAL: Normal

    OK: 

    There are no momentary interruptions. 

    HINT:

    Perform the above inspection before removing the sensor and connector.

    NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (SPEED SENSOR CIRCUIT) 

    OK: Go to next step 

  2. READ VALUE OF INTELLIGENT TESTER (REAR SPEED SENSOR) 
    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
    2. Start the engine.
    3. Select the DATA LIST mode on the intelligent tester.

      ABS / VSC: 

      NORMAL CONDITION CHART

      Item (Display) Measurement Item / Range (Display) Normal Condition

      min.: 0 km/h (0 mph), max.: 326 km/h (202 mph)
      Actual wheel speed
      RR WHEEL SPD Wheel speed sensor (RR) reading /
      min.: 0 km/h (0 mph), max.: 326 km/h (202 mph)
      Actual wheel speed
    4. Check that the speed value output from the speed sensor displayed on the intelligent tester and the speed value displayed on the speedometer are almost the same when driving the vehicle.

      OK: 

      The speed value output from the speed sensor displayed on the intelligent tester is the same as the actual vehicle speed. 

      ABS / VSC: 

      NORMAL CONDITION CHART

      BACK: Back
    5. Check that the sensor signal conforms to the wheel direction.

      OK: 

      The wheel direction is displayed. 

    NG:  Go to step  5

    OK: Go to next step 

  3. PERFORM TEST MODE (SIGNAL CHECK) 
    1. Clear the DTC (see DTC CHECK / CLEAR ).
    2. Perform sensor signal check in TEST MODE PROCEDURE (see TEST MODE PROCEDURE ).

      OK:
