1998 HONDA CR-V Vehicle speed sensor

Wheel Sensor
The wheel sensors are the magnetic contactless type. As the gear pulser teeth rotate past the wheel sensor's magnetic
coil, AC current is generated. The AC frequency changes in accordance with the wheel speed. The ABS control unit detects
the wheel sensor signal frequency and thereby detects the wheel speed
at LOW SPEED

When the wheel speed drops sharply below the vehicle speed, the outlet valve opens momentarily to reduce the caliper
fluid pressure. The pump motor starts at this time. As the wheel speed is restored. the inlet valve opens momentarily to
increase the caliDer fluid oressure.

Troubleshooting Precautions
ABS lndicalor
1 lf the system is oK, the ABS indicator goes off two seconds after turning the ignition switch oN 1l) wathout staningthe engine, and then comes on again and goes off after two seconds. This occurs because the ABS control unit isturned on by the lG2 power source.2. The ABS indicator comes on when the ABS control unit detects a problem in the system. However, even thouoh thesystem is operating properly, the ABs indicator will come on too, under the following conditions:. Signal disturbance
. Wheel spin
. Only drive wheels rotate. Battery voltage fluctuates
To determine the actual cause of the problem, question the customer about the problem, taking these conditions intoconsideration:
3 When a problem is detected and the ABS indicator comes on, the indicator can stay on until the ignition switch isturned OFF, or it can automatically go off, depending on the mode.. Indicator stays on untilthe ignition switch is turned off: When the system is in the system down mode.. Indicator automatically goes off: When the system is in the control inhibition mode.4 The ABS indicator stays on when the system is reactivated without erasing the DTC, but it goes off after starting thevehicle.
When the wheel sensor system is faulty and the ABS indicator comes on. the algorithm of the system automatically turnsoff the ABS indicator after the wheel speed signal returns to the normal speed. Also, when the DTc is erased, the cpu isreset and the ABS indicator goes off when the system checked out normal by the initial diagnosis.Therefore, test-drive the vehicle after servicing the wheel sensor system. and be sure that the ABS indicator does notcome on.
5 When the ABS control unit outputs battery voltage to the gauge assembly, the ABS indicator ooes off.
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTCI
1. The diagnostic trouble code (DTc) is memorized when a problem is detected and the ABS indicator does not go off,or when the ABS indicator comes on.The DTc is not memorized when the ABS indicator comes on unress the cpu is activated,2 The memory can hold any number of DTCs. However, when the same DTc is detected twice or more, the tater one iswritten over the old one.
Therefore, when the same problem is detected repeatedly, it is recorded as one DTC.3. The DTCs are indicated in the order of ascending number, not in the order they occur.4. The DTCS are memorized in the EEPROM (non-volatile memorv).Therefore, the memorized DTcs cannot be canceled by disconnecting the battery. perform the specified procedures toerase the DTCS.
Self-diagnosis
1. Self-diagnosis can be classified into these four categories:' Initial diagnosis: Performed right after the eng ine starts and untir theABS indicator goes off.. Except ABS control: Performed when the ABS is not functioning.. During ABS control: Performed when the ABS is functioning.. During warning: Performed when the ABS indicator is ON.2. The system performs the fo|owing contrors when a probrem is detected by the serf-diagnosis:. ABS indicator ON. Memorv of DTC. Mode changetothe "system down mode,, or the ,,control inhibition mode,,.
