Wiring diagram

Inspection procedure

Inspection procedure

1 Check combination meter assy

  1. Remove the combination meter assy with connector still connected.
  2.  check voltage.
  1.  Jack up either of the front wheels.
  2.  Shift the shift lever to neutral.
  3.  Turn the ignition switch to on.
  4.  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.

2 Check obd ii scan tool or hand–held tester

  1. Check output value of skid control ecu.
  1.  Connect the hand–held tester to dlc3.
  2.  Turn the ignition switch to on and push the hand–held tester main switch on.
  3.  Select the data list mode on the hand–held tester.
  4.  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.

3 Inspect speedometer sensor

  1. Check voltage.
  1.  Shift the shift lever to neutral.
  2.  Jack up either of the front wheel.
  3.  Turn the ignition switch to on.
  4.  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 ...
