      GTY260189Courtesy of © TOYOTA, LICENSE AGREEMENT TMS1002
    2. Connect the oscilloscope to the front speed sensor terminal of the skid control ECU.
    3. Check that a waveform is output when the tires are rotated (by the sensor circuit).

      OK

      The same waveform is output from all the 4 wheels and there is no noise or interference in the waveform.

      HINT: 

      • As the vehicle speed (wheel revolution speed) increases, a cycle of the waveform narrows and the output voltage becomes greater.
      • When noise is identified in the waveform on the oscilloscope, the erratic signals are generated due to speed sensor rotor's scratches, looseness or foreign matter attached to it.
