Speed Signal Circuit





METER: METER / GAUGE SYSTEM: Speed Signal Circuit
- Speed Signal Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The meter CPU receives vehicle speed signals from this circuit. The vehicle speed sensor detects the voltage that varies according to the vehicle speed. The skid control ECU supplies power to the vehicle speed sensor. The skid control ECU detects vehicle speed signals based on the pulses of the voltage. The skid control ECU transmits vehicle speed signals as pulses to the meter CPU. A voltage of 12 V is output from the combination meter assembly and then input to the skid control ECU. The signal is changed to a pulse signal at the transistor in the combination meter assembly.

A voltage of 12 V or 5 V is output from each ECU or relay and then input to the combination meter assembly.

Each ECU controls the respective system based on the pulse signal.

HINT
This circuit is used for another system, and is not used for combination meter operation.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE

1. INSPECT COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY (OUTPUT WAVEFORM)

(a) Check the output waveform.





(1) Remove the combination meter assembly with connector(s) still connected.

(2) Connect the oscilloscope to the terminals F2-12 (+S) and body ground.

(3) Ignition switch on (IG).

(4) Turn the wheel slowly.

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





OK:

The waveform is displayed as 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.
