COMPONENT LOCATION:

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The wheel speed sensor is the essential component the ABS ECU uses to calculate vehicle speed and to determine whether wheel lock occurs. For example, rear wheel speed signal is used as a reference value, for vehicle speed, in front wheel drive vehicles, and if a difference between front and rear wheel speed occurs, then ABS control is performed. Wheel speed sensor is an active hall-sensor type and good at temperature and noise characteristic. Digital wave is produced as tone wheel rotate according as hall sensor principle. Frequency of duty wave is changed in proportion to rotation of tone wheel and HECU calculate vehicle speed by this frequency.

DTC DESCRIPTION
The ABS ECU monitors the wheel speed sensor signal continuously. This code is set when the sensor air gap is out of specified range or when No wheel speed signals within 10 ms to 20 ms at a vehicle speed > 43.2 km/h (26 MPH). Warning lamp is turned OFF if the detected fault is not more than when the IG KEY is turned to ON again, and wheel speeds are more than 12 Km/h (7 MPH).

DTC DETECTING CONDITION

DTC DETECTING CONDITION:

MONITOR scan tool DATA
1. Connect scan tool to Data Link Connector (DLC).
2. Engine "ON".
3. Start and drive vehicle in gear and maintain vehicle speed of approximately 50 km/h or more (31 mph or more) Monitor the Wheel speed sensor parameter on the scan tool.
Specification: Approximately 50 km/h or more (31 mph or more)
Is it normal?
YES
- Fault is intermittent caused by faulty wheel speed sensor and/or faulty HECU or was repaired and HECU memory was not cleared. Repair or replace as necessary and then go to Component Inspection procedure.
NO
1) Check for improper installation of wheel speed sensor. If NG, repair as necessary and then go to "Verification of vehicle Repair procedure.
2) Check for damage of rotor teeth or wheel bearing. If NG, repair as necessary and then go to "Verification of vehicle Repair procedure.
3) Substitute with a known-good Wheel speed sensor and check for proper operation. If problem is corrected, replace Wheel speed sensor and then go to Verification of Vehicle Repair procedure.

COMPONENT INSPECTION
1. Ignition "OFF".
2. Engine "ON".
3. Start and drive vehicle in gear and maintain vehicle speed of approximately 50 km/h or more (31 mph or more).
Does warning lamp remain On?
YES
- Substitute with a known-good HECU and check for proper operation. If problem is corrected, replace HECU and then go to Verification of Vehicle Repair procedure.
NO
- Fault is intermittent caused by open or short of wheel speed sensor harness, faulty wheel speed sensor and/or faulty HECU or was repaired and HECU memory was not cleared. Go to the applicable troubleshooting procedure.

VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR
After a repair, it is essential to verify that the fault has been corrected.
1. Connect scan tool and select Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) mode.
2. Using a scan tool, Clear DTC.
3. Operate the vehicle within DTC Detecting Condition in General Information. (Start and drive vehicle in gear and maintain vehicle speed of approximately 50 km/h or more (31 mph or more)
Are any DTCs present?
YES
- Go to the applicable troubleshooting procedure.
NO
- A system performs normally at this time.
