Speed Sensor Check
- Disconnect control unit.
- Measure resistance of the speed sensor. It must be between 1.04 and 1.16K Ohms.
- Check pulse wheel for damage, ease of movement and eccentricity faults.
- Check clearance (air gap) and set if necessary:
Nominal value front 0.27...1.24 mm
Nominal value rear 0.48... 1.23 mm
- Connect oscilloscope of BMW Service Tester as follows:
Terminal D+ blue to speed sensor signal.
Frequency (-) black to speed sensor ground.
Frequency (+) blue to terminal 1 black.
*M* 13 Select frequency and enter 80 Hz
*M* 22 Select oscilloscope
- Uniformly turn wheel by hand. A sinusoidal curve must be displayed whose amplitude and period duration change dependent on the rotary speed.
