Toyota Corolla (E120): Malfunction in speedometer
Wiring diagram

Inspection procedure
1 Check combination meter assy

- Remove the combination meter assy with connector still connected.
- check voltage.
- Jack up either of the front wheels.
- Shift the shift lever to neutral.
- Turn the ignition switch to on.
- Measure the voltage between terminals c9–9 of combination meter assy and body ground when front wheel is turning slowly.
Standard voltage: voltage is generated intermittently.

Result:



Check and replace combination meter assy
2 Check obd ii scan tool or hand–held tester
- Check output value of skid control ecu.
- Connect the hand–held tester to dlc3.
- Turn the ignition switch to on and push the hand–held tester main switch on.
- Select the data list mode on the hand–held tester.
- Check that there is no difference between the speed value output
from the speed sensor displayed
by the hand–held tester and the speed value displayed by the speedometer
when driving
the vehicle.
Ok: there is almost no difference from the displayed speed value.


Repair or replace harness or connector
3 Inspect speedometer sensor

- Check voltage.
- Shift the shift lever to neutral.
- Jack up either of the front wheel.
- Turn the ignition switch to on.
- Measure voltage between terminals 3 and 2 of speed sensor when the front wheel is turning slowly.
Standard voltage: voltage is generated intermittently.

Circuit description
The variable valve timing (vvt) system includes the ecm, the oil control
valve (ocv) and the vvt controller.
The ecm sends a target ”duty–cycle” control signal to the ocv. This control
signal, applied to the ocv,
regulates the oil pressure supplied to the vvt controller. Camshaft timin ...
Wheels
If a wheel is bent, cracked or
heavily corroded, it should
be replaced. Otherwise, the
tire may separate from the
wheel or cause a loss of
handling control.
Wheel selection
When replacing wheels, care
should be taken to ensure that
they are equivalent to those
removed in load capacity, diameter,
rim ...
Inspection
1. Inspect sliding roof limit switch
Inspect the sliding roof limit switch continuity.
Standard:
If the continuity is not as specified, replace the switch.
2. Inspect sliding roof drive gear sub–assy
Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal
2 and the ne ...
