Vehicle Speed Signal Circuit between Radio Receiver and Combination Meter
AUDIO / VIDEO: AUDIO AND VISUAL SYSTEM: Vehicle Speed Signal Circuit between Radio Receiver and Combination Meter
Vehicle Speed Signal Circuit between Radio Receiver and Combination Meter
DESCRIPTION
This circuit is necessary for the ASL (Auto Sound Leveliser) built into the radio receiver.
Speed signals are received from the combination meter and used for the ASL.
The ASL function automatically adjusts the sound data in order to enable the driver to hear clear audio sound even when vehicle noise increases (as vehicle noise increases, the volume is turned up, etc.).
HINT:
- A voltage of 12 V or 5 V is output from each ECU and then input to the combination meter. The signal is changed to a pulse signal at the transistor in the combination meter. Each ECU controls the respective system based on the pulse signal.
- If a short occurs in an ECU, all systems in the diagram below will not operate normally.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
PROCEDURE
1. CHECK OPERATION OF SPEEDOMETER
(a) 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 speed indicated on the speedometer has an allowable margin of error. This can be tested using a speedometer tester (calibrated chassis dynamometer). For details about testing and the margin of error, refer to "Operation Check" in the meter/gauge system Component Tests and General Diagnostics.
- The vehicle speed sensor is functioning normally when the indication on the speedometer is normal.
NG -- GO TO METER / GAUGE SYSTEM
OK -- Continue to next step.
2. INSPECT COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY (SPEED SIGNAL)
(a) Disconnect the I3*1 or I9*2 radio receiver assembly connector.
HINT:
*1: for 8 Speakers
*2: for 14 Speakers
(b) Jack up the drive wheels.
(c) Move the shift lever to N.
(d) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(e) Using an oscilloscope, check the signal waveform of the combination meter assembly.
Waveform
HINT:
- *1: for 8 Speakers
- *2: for 14 Speakers
- As the vehicle speed increases, the wavelength shortens.
OK:
Voltage pulses as shown in the illustration.
(f) Reconnect the radio receiver assembly connector.
NG -- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY - RADIO RECEIVER ASSEMBLY)
OK -- REPLACE RADIO RECEIVER ASSEMBLY
3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY - RADIO RECEIVER ASSEMBLY)
(a) Disconnect the I3*1 or I9*2 radio receiver assembly connector.
HINT:
*1: for 8 Speakers
*2: for 14 Speakers
(b) Disconnect the H37 combination meter assembly connector.
(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance:
for 8 Speakers
for 14 Speakers
(d) Reconnect the radio receiver assembly connector.
(e) Reconnect the combination meter assembly connector.
NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY
