13. Rear Window Defogger

NOTE:
When measuring voltage, wind a piece of tin foil
around the tip of the tester probe and press the foil
against the wire with your finger.
G6M0136
4) When tester indicates 12 volts when its probe
reaches point ªAº, a broken circuit occurs between
point ªAº and the negative terminal. Slowly move
tester probe toward the negative terminal while
contacting it on heat wire to locate point where
tester indication changes abruptly (0 volts). This is
the point where a broken circuit occurs.
When tester indicates 0 volts when its probe
reaches point ªAº, a broken circuit occurs between
point ªAº and the positive terminal. Locate a point
where tester indication changes abruptly (12 volts)
while slowly moving tester probe toward the posi-
tive terminal.
G6M0137
C: REPAIR
1) Clean broken wire and its surrounding area.2) Cut off slit on (used) thin film by 0.5 mm (0.020
in) width and 10 mm (0.39 in) length.
3) Place the slit on glass along the broken wire,
and deposit conductive silver composition
(DUPONT No. 4817) on the broken portion.
G6M0138
4) Dry out the deposited portion.
5) Inspect the repaired wire for continuity.

15. Vehicle Speed Sensor 2
A: GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
(1) Be careful not to drop or bump sensor as this
may break built-in magnet.
(2) Drive key is designed to separate from vehicle
speed sensor 2. Be careful not to lose it or forget
to install.
(3) Vehicle speed sensor 2 is installed in part
(which contains bearings, etc., finished to a high
degree of accuracy). Do not allow foreign matter
(filings, sand, etc.) to get into it.
(4) When checking output of vehicle speed sensor
2 as a single unit, ensure test leads are connected
to their correct terminals. Failure to do this may
damage internal IC.
(5) Discard vehicle speed sensor 2 after removal;
replace with new one.
B: REMOVAL
CAUTION:
IBe careful when removing vehicle speed
sensor 2 immediately after driving vehicle for a
while, as temperature around it is high.
IBefore removing vehicle speed sensor 2,
clean dirt, etc. from surrounding areas. Take
care not to allow foreign matter to get into
mounting hole.
1) Remove collector cover.
2) Disconnect vehicle speed sensor 2 connector.
B2M0211
3) Turn and remove vehicle speed sensor 2.
4) Remove key and packing.
C: INSTALLATION
CAUTION:
IEnsure sensor mounting hole is clean and
free of foreign matter.
IApply grease to tip end of key to prevent key
from falling off sensor.
IAlign tip end of key with key groove on end
of speedometer shaft during installation.
1) Hand tighten vehicle speed sensor 2, then
tighten it using suitable tool.Tightening torque required for sensor to reach bot-
tom of transmission is as follows:
Tightening torque:
0.39 Ð 0.88 N´m (4.0 Ð 9.0 kg-cm, 3.5 Ð
7.8 in-lb)
CAUTION:
IWhen torque must be applied that exceeds
0.88 N´m (9.0 kg-cm, 7.8 in-lb), the key and key
groove on end of speedometer may not be
aligned properly. Remove the key, align it cor-
rectly and reassemble.
ISensor threads are secured by Locktite. The
reassembly must be completed within 5 min-
utes before Locktite dries.
2) Tighten vehicle speed sensor 2 further to speci-
fied torque.
Tightening torque:
