INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 Check speed sensor.
Front:
PREPARATION:
(a) Remove the front fender liner.
(b) Disconnect the speed sensor connector.
CHECK:
Measure the resistance between terminals 1 and 2 of the speed
sensor connector.
OK:
Resistance: 0.6 - 2.5 kW (1.6 ± 0.2 kW at 20 °C)
CHECK:
Measure the resistance between terminals 1 and 2 of the speed
sensor connector and body ground.
OK:
Resistance: 1 MW or higher
Rear:
PREPARATION:
(a) Remove the seat cushion and seatback.
(b) Disconnect the speed sensor connector.
CHECK:
Measure the resistance between terminals 1 and 2 of the speed
sensor connector.
OK:
Resistance: 1.2 - 2.3 kW (1.6 ± 0.1 kW at 20 °C)
CHECK:
Measure the resistance between terminals 1 and 2 of the speed
sensor connector and body ground.
OK:
Resistance: 1 MW or higher
NG Replace speed sensor.
NOTICE:
Check the speed sensor signal last (See page DI-212).

Fail safe function:
When a failure occurs in the ABS system, the ABS warning light is lit and the ABS operation is prohibited. In addition
to this, when the failure which disables the EBD operation occurs, the brake warning light is lit as well and EBD
operation is prohibited. DI-210
