Speedometer Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

The combination meter receives vehicle speed signals from the skid control ECU via the CAN communication line. The wheel speed sensors output voltages that vary according to the vehicle speed. The skid control ECU supplies power to the wheel speed sensors. The skid control ECU calculates the vehicle speed based on the pulses of the voltage.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

If the vehicle speed is outside the allowable range when tested, perform the on-vehicle inspection (See page ).

HINT:

Before starting the following inspection, check tire size and tire air pressure.

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

(a) Check if a CAN communication DTC is output (See page ).

1. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM (SPEED METER OPERATION)

(a) Use the Active Test to check the operation of the speedometer (See page ).

Combination Meter

Tester Display	Test Part	Control Range	Diagnostic Note
Speed Meter Operation	Speedometer	0, 40, 80, 120, 160, 200 mph*1	Acceptable range (mph): [Control range → Speedometer display] 40 → 40 to 43.5 80 → 80 to 84.5 Confirm that the vehicle is stopped with the engine idling.
		0, 40, 80, 120, 160, 200 km/h*2	Acceptable range (km/h): [Control range → Speedometer display] 40 → 38 to 42 80 → 78 to 84 120 → 119 to 125 160 → 159 to 167 Confirm that the vehicle is stopped with the engine idling.

• *1: for U.S.A.
• *2: except U.S.A.

OK:

Speedometer indication is normal.

1. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (VEHICLE SPEED METER)

(a) Use the Data List to check if the speedometer is operating properly (See page ).

Combination Meter

Tester Display	Measurement Item/Range	Normal Condition	Diagnostic Note
Vehicle Speed Meter	Vehicle speed/Min.: 0 km/h, Max.: 255 km/h	Almost the same as actual vehicle speed measured using a speedometer tester	-

OK:

Vehicle speed displayed on the Techstream is almost the same as the actual vehicle speed measured using a speedometer tester (calibrated chassis dynamometer).

1. REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY

(a) Replace the combination meter assembly with a new or normally functioning one (See page ).

OK:

The operation of the speedometer returns to normal.
