CHECK SPEED SENSOR AND SENSOR ROTOR SERRATIONS

(REFERENCE) INSPECTION USING OSCILLOSCOPE
(a)

Remove the skid control ECU with connectors still con-
nected.

(b)

Connect the oscilloscope to the terminals FR+ - FR- and
FL+ - FL- of the skid control ECU.

(c)

Drive the vehicle at about 30 km/h (19 mph), and check
the signal waveform.

HINT:

As the vehicle speed (wheel revolution speed) increases,
a cycle of the waveform becomes shorter and the fluctua-
tion in the output voltage becomes greater.

When noise is identified in the waveform on the oscillo-
scope, error signals are generated due to the speed sen-
sor rotor’s scratches, looseness or foreign matter depos-
ited on it.

CHECK FRONT SPEED SENSOR INSTALLATION

(a)

Check the speed sensor installation.
OK:
The installation bolt is tightened properly and there is
no clearance between the sensor and front steering
knuckle.

DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM

(a)

Release the parking brake pedal.

(b)

Check the warning light.
When the ignition switch is turned ON, check that the ABS
warning light and BRAKE warning light turns on for 3 sec.

HINT:

When the parking brake is applied or the level of the brake
fluid is low, the BRAKE warning light is lit.

If the indicator check result is not normal, proceed to trou-
bleshooting for the ABS warning light circuit (See page

05-275

or

05-277

) or BRAKE warning light circuit (See

page

05-278

).

(c)

In case of not using hand-held tester:
Check the DTC.
(1)

Using SST, connect terminals Tc and CG of DLC3.

SST

09843-18040

(2)

Turn the ignition switch ON.

(3)

Read the DTC from the ABS warning light on the
combination meter.

HINT:

If a code does not appear, inspect the diagnostic circuit
or ABS warning light circuit (See page

05- 275

or

05-277

).
