Speedometer
INSPECTION OF SPEEDOMETER
INSPECT SPEEDOMETER OPERATION (ON±VEHICLE)
(a) Using a speedometer tester, inspect the speedometer
for allowable indication error and check the operation
of the odometer.
HINT: Tire wear and tire over or under inflation will increase
the indication error.
Speed Sensor
INSPECTION OF SPEED SENSOR
INSPECT SPEED SENSOR
Check that there is continuity between terminals A and B
four times per each revolution of the shaft.
If operation is not as specified, replace the speedometer.If error is excessive, replace the speedometer.
(b) Check the speedometer for pointer vibration and ab-
normal noise.
HINT: Pointer vibration can be caused by a loose
speedometer cable.

PRECAUTIONS
1. Care must be taken to replace each part properly as it
could affect the performance of the brake system and re-
sult in a driving hazard. Replace the parts with parts of the
same part number or equivalent.
2. It is very important to keep parts and the area clean when
repairing the brake system.

FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENT
1. MAKE FOLLOWING CHECKS AND CORRECT ANY
PROBLEMS
(a) Check the tires for wear, size and proper inflation.
Cold tire inflation pressure:
FWD/SV21 and 4WD 2.1 kg±cm2 (30 psi, 206 kPa)
FWD/VZV21 2.2 kg±cm2 (31 psi, 216 kPa)
(b) Check the front wheel bearings for looseness.
(c) Check the wheel runout.
Lateral runout: Less than 1.0 mm (0.039 in.)
(d) Check the front suspension for looseness.
(e) Check the steering linkage for looseness.
(f) Check that the front shock absorber function properly
by using the standard bounce test.
If the clearance of the vehicle is not standard, try
to level by locking it down. If still not correct, check
for bad springs or suspension parts.
HINT: Before inspecting wheel alignment, adjust
chassis ground clearance to specification.
3. INSTALL WHEEL ALIGNMENT EQUIPMENT
Follow the specific instructions of the equipment
manufacturer. 2. MEASURE CHASSIS GROUND CLEARANCE
