Hint
PRemove air cleaner and duct.
Open and close the sub±throttle valve manually and
check the condition during operation.
The valve should operate smoothly without catch-
ing.
If sub±throttle actuator, sub±throttle valve, sub±throttle
position sensor and harness are free from any defect,
ECM may be defective. If ECM is free from any defect,
TRAC ECU may be defective.

BRAKE SYSTEM TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TRAC)BR±189
WhereEverybodyKnowsYourName

The speed sensor detects the wheel speed and sends the ap-
propriate signals to the ECU. These signals are used for control
of both the ABS and TRAC control systems. The front and rear
rotors each have 48 serrations. When the rotors rotate, the mag-
netic field emitted by the permanent magnet in the speed sensor
generates an AC voltage. Since the frequency of this AC voltage
changes in proportion to the speed of the rotors (wheels), the
frequency is used by the ECU to detect the speed of each wheel.

(2) Momentary interruption of the vehicle speed sen- sor signal occurs at least 7 times in the time be-
tween switching the ignition switch ON and switch-
ing it OFF.

Hint: DTC No. 31 is for the right front wheel speed sensor.
DTC No. 32 is for the left front wheel speed sensor.
DTC No. 33 is for the right rear wheel speed sensor.
DTC No. 34 is for the left rear wheel speed sensor.
Fail safe function: If trouble occurs in the speed sensor circuit, the E\
CU prohibits TRAC control.
