HINT:
As the vehicle speed (wheel revolution speed) increases, a cycle of the waveform narrows and the
fluctuation in the output voltage becomes greater.
When noise is identified in the waveform on the oscilloscope, error signals are generated due to the
speed sensor rotor's scratches, looseness or foreign matter attached to it.

When U0121/94, U0123/62, U0124/95 or U0126/63 are output together with C1231/31, inspect and
repair the trouble areas indicated by U0121/94, U0123/62, U0124/95 or U0126/63 first.
When the speed sensor or the yaw rate sensor has trouble, DTCs for the steering angle sensor may be
output even when the steering angle sensor is normal. When DTCs for the speed sensor or yaw rate
sensor are output together with other DTCs for the steering angle sensor, inspect and repair the speed
sensor and yaw rate sensor first, and then inspect and repair the steering angle sensor.
1.CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (MOMENTARY INTERRUPTION)

connectors between the skid control ECU and steering angle sensor (see CHECK FOR
INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS ).

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The speed sensor detects wheel speed and sends the appropriate signals to the ECU. These signals are used to
control the ABS control system. The front and rear rotors have 48 serrations each.
When the rotors rotate, the magnetic field emitted by the permanent magnet in the speed sensor generates an
AC voltage. Since the frequency of this AC voltage changes in direct proportion to the speed of the rotor, the
frequenc
y is used by the ECU to detect the speed of each wheel.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1.INSPECT SPEED SENSOR AND SENSOR ROTOR SERRATIONS
INSPECTION USING OSCILLOSCOPE
a. Connect the oscilloscope to terminal FR+ - FR- or FL+ - FL- of the skid control ECU.
b. Drive the vehicle at approximately 19 mph (30 km/h), and check the signal waveform.
OK: Go to next step
A waveform as shown in a figure should be output.
HINT:
As the vehicle speed (wheel revolution speed) increases, a cycle of the waveform narrows and the
fluctuation in the output voltage becomes greater.
When noise is identified in the waveform on the oscilloscope, error signals are generated due to the
speed sensor rotor's scratches, looseness or forei
gn matter attached to it.

8.INSPECT PAD WEAR INDICATOR WIRE ASSY
FRONT:
HINT:
Check that there are no scratches or cracks on the pad wear indicator.
a. Remove the front wheel RH.
b. Disconnect front pad wear indicator connector.
c. Measure the resistance accordin
g to the value (s) in the table below.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The skid control ECU detects the TRAC control main switch ON/OFF signal and turns the TRAC OFF light
on/off.
When the TRAC control switch is pressed, the TRAC control does not operate and the TRAC OFF light comes
on.
The skid control ECU connected to the combination meter via CAN and MPX communications.

If the vehicle is raised with its engine running, connect terminals OPB and CG of the DLC3 to stop
the vehicle height control operation of the suspension control ECU.
Do not operate the steering wheel if there is no air in the pneumatic cylinder.
HINT:
The pneumatic cylinder could be damaged if twisted without air in the cylinder.
In the case of lifting down the vehicle without air in the cylinder, make sure all the pipes are securely
connected.
HINT:
The pneumatic cylinder could be damaged if any pipe is disconnected while lifting down the vehicle.
Do not apply battery voltage to the compressor motor for more than 60 seconds to prevent damage to the
motor.
HINT:
When it is necessary to perform the operation by charging the battery for more than 60 seconds, for example
height recovery without air in the cylinder, proceed to the operation as follows: after 60 seconds have passed,
turn the ignition switch off once, and then turn the ignition switch to the ON position again for commencement
of operation.
