Inspection Procedure

1. Drive the vehicle and check if the function of the speedometer on the combination meter is normal.

   OK: Actual vehicle speed and the speed indicated on the speedometer are the same. 

   HINT.

   The vehicle speed sensor is functioning normally when the indication on the speedometer is normal

NG: GO TO METER / GAUGE SYSTEM  (See PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE )

OK: Go to next step 

1. Disconnect the stereo component amplifier connector.
2. Measure the voltage
   1. Jack up either one of the drive wheels.
   2. Move the shift lever to N.
   3. Turn the engine switch on (IG)

   4. Measure the voltage between terminal SPD of the stereo component amplifier and body ground when the drive wheels are turned slowly

      OK: Voltage pulses as shown in the illustration.

NG: Go to step 3 

OK: REPLACE STEREO COMPONENT AMPLIFIER  (See REMOVAL  )

1. Disconnect the stereo component amplifier connector and combination meter connector.

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

   Standard Resistance 

   RESISTANCE SPECIFICATION
   
   

   Tester Connection	Switch Condition	Specified Condition
   P30-11 (SPD) - J34-5 (+S)	Engine switch off	Below 1 Ω

NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

OK: Go to next step 

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

   Standard Resistance 

   RESISTANCE SPECIFICATION
   
   

   Tester Connection	Switch Condition	Specified Condition
   P30-11 (SPD) - Body ground	Engine switch off	10 kΩ or higher

   HINT:

   If the resistance between terminal SPD and body ground is less than 10 kΩ, there may be a short in a wire harness, connector, or an ECU that is connected to the SPD signal wire.
