Vehicle Speed Signal Circuit between Stereo Component Amplifier and Combination Meter: Procedure

  1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (STEREO COMPONENT AMPLIFIER ASSEMBLY - COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY) 
    1. Disconnect the stereo component amplifier assembly connector.
    2. Disconnect the combination meter assembly connector.
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      P43-2 (SPD) - J34-5 (+S) Always Below 1 Ω
      P43-2 (SPD) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  2. INSPECT COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY (OUTPUT WAVEFORM) 
    1. Reconnect the combination meter assembly connector.
    2. Check the output waveform.

      1. Connect an oscilloscope to terminal P43-2 (SPD) and body ground.
      2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
      3. Turn a wheel slowly.
      4. Check the signal waveform according to the condition(s) in the table below.

        Item Condition
        Measurement terminal P43-2 (SPD) - Body ground
        Tool setting 5 V/DIV., 20 ms./DIV.
        Vehicle condition Wheel being rotated

        OK

        The waveform is similar to that 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.

    OK → See step   3 

  3. REPLACE STEREO COMPONENT AMPLIFIER ASSEMBLY. Refer to  REMOVAL 
  4. REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY. Refer to  REMOVAL
