BRAKE CONTROL – ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEMBC–19
BC
DESCRIPTION
The speed sensor detects wheel speed and transmits the appropriate signals to the ECU. These signals
are used for control of the ABS control system. The front and rear rotors have 48 serrations each.
When the rotors rotate, the magnetic field generated by the permanent magnet in the speed sensor
induces an AC voltage.
Since the frequency of this AC voltage changes in direct proportion to the speed of the rotor, the
frequency is used by the ECU to detect the speed of each wheel.
DTCs C1271/71 to C1276/76 can be deleted when the speed sensor sends a vehicle speed signal or the
Test Mode ends. DTCs C1271/71 to C1276/76 are output only in the Test Mode.

The codes in this table are output only in Test Mode

7. SENSOR SIGNAL CHECK BY TEST MODE (SIGNAL
CHECK) (WHEN USING SST CHECK WIRE):
(a) When having replaced the skid control ECU and/or
yaw rate and deceleration sensor, perform zero
point calibration of the yaw rate and deceleration
sensor.
HINT:
• If the ignition switch is turned from the ON
position to the ACC or off during test mode
(signal check), DTCs of the signal check function
will be erased.
• During test mode (signal check), the skid control
ECU records all DTCs of the signal check
function. By performing the test mode (signal
check), the codes are erased if normality is
confirmed. The remaining codes are the codes
where an abnormality was found.
(b) Procedures for test mode.
(1) Turn the ignition switch off.
(2) Check that the steering wheel is in the
straightahead position and move the shift lever
to the P position.

• If the skid control buzzer does not sound yet,
there is a malfunction in the yaw rate sensor,
so check the DTC.
• Make a 180
turn. At the end of the turn, the
direction of the vehicle should be within 180
+- 5
of its start position.
• Do not spin the wheels.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
(a) Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
(b) Start the engine.
(c) Select the DATA LIST mode on the intelligent tester.
ABS / VSC:
(d) Check that there is no difference between the speed
value output from the speed sensor displayed by the
intelligent tester and the speed value displayed on the
speedometer when driving the vehicle.
OK:
There is almost no difference in the displayed
speed value.
HINT:
There is tolerance of +- 10 % in the speedometer
indication.
NG
OK
(a) INSPECTION USING OSCILLOSCOPE:
(1) Connect the oscilloscope to terminals RR+ - RR- or
RL+ - RL- of the skid control ECU.
(2) Drive the vehicle at approximately 19 mph (30 km/
h), and check the signal waveform.
OK:
A waveform as shown in a figure should be
output.
HINT:
• As vehicle speed (wheel revolution speed) in
creases, a cycle of the waveform narrows and
the fluctuation in the output voltage becomes
greater.
• hen noise is identified in the waveform on the
oscilloscope, error signals are generated due to
the speed sensor rotor's scratches, looseness or
foreign matter attached to it.
NOTICE:
When replacing the brake actuator assembly,
perform zero point calibration (See page BC-70).
