METER AND GAUGES - Digital Type Combination Meter
Speed Sensor Si!
METER OUTPUT CHECK
Combination meter emits speed sensor signal to
control
E C.C.S. control unit, A.S.C D. control
unit, voice warning
unit and AIT control unit.
Disconnect speedometer cable from speed sen-
sor and remove speed sensor with harness con-
nected 1
2 Remove cluster lid A.
3 Disconnect combination meter harness from
instrument harness
as shown, and connect an
ohmmeter between @ and 0

Turn ignition switch "OFF" + "ON".
Slowly turn speed sensor rotor shaft with a
suitable screwdriver to make sure ohmmeter
pointer deflects.
Ohmmeter pointer deflects twice for each rotatton
of rotor shaft

If ohmmeter pointer does not deflect, go to
"Speed Sensor Output Check". (Refer to back
