Audio And Visual System (w/o Navigation System with Multi-display)





AUDIO / VISUAL: AUDIO AND VISUAL SYSTEM (w/o Navigation System with Multi-display): B15C2: Speed Signal Malfunction
B15C2 - Speed Signal Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

The display and navigation module display receives a vehicle speed signal from the combination meter assembly and information about the GPS antenna, and then adjusts vehicle position.

The display and navigation module display stores this DTC when the difference between the speed information that the GPS antenna receives and the SPD pulse received from the combination meter assembly becomes large.

HINT
* A voltage of 12 V or 5 V is output from each ECU and then input to the combination meter assembly. The signal is changed to a pulse signal at the transistor in the combination meter assembly. Each ECU controls the respective systems based on the pulse signal.
* If a short occurs in any of the ECUs or in the wire harness connected to an ECU, all systems in the diagram below will not operate normally.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK VEHICLE SENSOR (OPERATION CHECK)

(a) Enter the "Vehicle Sensors" screen. Refer to Check GPS & Vehicle Sensors in Operation Check Audio And Visual System (w/o Navigation System with Multi-display).





(b) While driving the vehicle, compare the "SPD" indicator to the reading on the speedometer. Check if these readings are almost equal.

OK:

The readings are almost equal.

NG -- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (DISPLAY AND NAVIGATION MODULE DISPLAY - JUNCTION BLOCK)

OK -- REPLACE DISPLAY AND NAVIGATION MODULE DISPLAY Removal

2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (DISPLAY AND NAVIGATION MODULE DISPLAY - JUNCTION BLOCK)

(a) Disconnect the display and navigation module display connector.

(b) Disconnect the combination meter assembly connector.

(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:





NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- Continue to next step.

3. INSPECT COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY (OUTPUT WAVEFORM)

(a) Reconnect the combination meter assembly.





(1) Check the output waveform.

(2) Connect an oscilloscope to terminal J100-18 (SPD) and body ground.

(3) Turn the engine switch on (IG).

(4) Turn a wheel slowly.

(5) Check the signal waveform according to the condition(s) in the table below.









Text in Illustration





OK:

The waveform is similar to that shown in the illustration.

HINT
When the system is functioning normally, one wheel revolution generates 4 pulses. As the vehicle speed increases, the width indicated by (A) in the illustration narrows.

NG -- REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY Removal

OK -- REPLACE DISPLAY AND NAVIGATION MODULE DISPLAY Removal
