Rear Wheel Alignment InspectionS7RS0B2306017
Measure toe and camber referring to “Front Wheel
Alignment Inspection and Adjustment in Section 2B”.
NOTE
Rear suspension is not adjustable structure.

Rear toe (total)
: IN 3.8 ± 3.8 mm (IN 0.1969 ± 0.1969 in)
Rear camber
: –1 ° ± 1
If measured value is out of specified value, check
following items for damage, deformation and crack.
• Rear axle (torsion beam)
• Spindle, wheel hub or wheel bearing
• Vehicle body

DTC TroubleshootingStep Action Yes No 1 Was “ABS Check” performed? Go to Step 2. Go to “ABS Check”.
2 1) Disconnect applicable ABS wheel speed sensor coupler with ignition switch OFF.
2) Measure resistance betw een terminals of ABS wheel
speed sensor. Refer to “Front Wheel Speed Sensor
Inspection” and/or “Front Wheel Encoder On-Vehicle
Inspection”.
Is measured resistance value as specified? Go to Step 3. Replace ABS wheel
speed sensor assembly.
3 1) Turn ignition switch OFF. 2) Connect applicable ABS wh eel speed sensor coupler.
3) Disconnect ABS hydraulic unit / control module connector.
4) Check for proper connection to ABS control module at each sensor terminal.
5) If OK, then turn ignition switch ON and measure voltage between applicable sensor terminal of module connector
and body ground.
Is it 0 V? Go to Step 4. ABS wheel speed
sensor circuit shorted to
power.
4 1) Turn ignition switch OFF. 2) Measure resistance between the following points.• Both ABS hydraulic unit / control module connector terminals of the correspo nding sensor. This check
result should be the same as Step 2).
• Either terminal of wheel speed sensor coupler and body ground. This check result should be no
continuity.
Are both check results OK? Go to Step 5. Circuit open or shorted
to ground.
5 1) Remove applicable ABS wheel speed sensor. 2) Check sensor for damage or foreign material attached.
Is it in good condition? Go to Step 6. Clean, repair or replace.
6 Check front and/or rear sensor ring for the following (remove rear drum as necessary):
• Sensor ring serration (teeth) neither missing nor damaged
• No foreign material being attached
• Sensor ring not being eccentric
• Wheel bearing free from excessive play
Are they in good condition? Go to Step 7. Clean, repair or replace.
7 1) Install ABS wheel speed sensor to knuckle. 2) Tighten sensor bolt to specified torque and check that there is no clearance between sensor and knuckle.
Is it OK? Go to Step 8. Replace ABS wheel
speed sensor.
8 Refer to “Front / Rear Wheel Speed Sensor On-Vehicle Inspection” and/or “Rear Wheel Speed Sensor Removal and
Installation”, check output voltage or waveform.
Is specified voltage and/or waveform obtained? Substitute a known-
good ABS hydraulic unit

bearing. Refer to “Front Wheel Hub, Steering Knuckle
and Wheel Bearing Removal and Installation in
Section 2B”.
Front wheel Encoder Removal and InstallationS7RS0B4506011
CAUTION!
Front wheel encoder is included in front
wheel bearing. If front wheel encoder needs
to replaced, replace it as a front wheel
