WHEEL SENSORS
WHEEL SENSORS
Removal and InstallationINFOID:0000000001327698
REMOVAL
1. Disconnect wheel sensor connector.
2. Remove wheel sensor mounting bolts, grommets (front sensor) and clip.
3. Remove wheel sensor.
CAUTION:
Be careful of the followin
g when installing sensor.
 As much as possible, avoid rotati ng sensor when removing it. Pull sensors out without pulling on
sensor harness.
 Take care to avoid damaging sensor edges or roto r teeth. Remove wheel sensor first before remov-
ing front wheel hub and bearing assembly and rear fina l drive. This is to avoid damage to sensor wir-
ing and loss of sensor function.
INSTALLATION
Note the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
Be careful of the follow ing when installing sensor. Tighten in stallation bolts to specified torques.
 When installing, make sure there is no foreign material such as iron chips on pick-up and mounting
hole of sensor. Make sure no foreign material h as been caught in the sensor rotor. Remove any for-
eign material and clean the mount.
 When installing front sensor, be sure to press rubber grommets in until they lock at the three loca-
tions shown in the figure (2 at shock absorbers and 1 at body pa nel). When installed, harness must
not be twisted. White line on ha rness must be visible from front.
 When installing rear sensor, attach harness at rear suspension member securely. Besides, harness
must not be twisted when installed.

CAUTION:
Be careful of the following wh en removing ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).
 If the part number on the part number label (p asted on actuator upper surface) is the same, ABS
actuator and electric unit (c ontrol unit) can not be used on another vehicle.
If it is used on another vehicle, ABS warning lamp, SLIP indicator lamp and VDC OFF indicator lamp
may turn ON or VDC/TCS/ABS may not operate normally.
When replacing ABS actuator an d electric unit (control unit), must use new service parts.
 Before servicing, disconnect battery cables.
 To remove brake tube, use a flare nut torque wrench to prevent flare nuts and brake tube from being
damaged. To install, use a flare nut torque wren ch (commercial service tool) and tighten to the spec-
ified torque.
 Do not apply excessive impact to actuator, such as dropping it.
 Do not remove and install ABS actuator and el ectric unit (control unit) by holding harness.
INSTALLATION
Note the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
Be careful of the following wh en installing ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).
 Tighten the mounting bolts and nuts to the specified torque.
 After the work, bleed air from brake piping. Refer to BR-8, "
Bleeding Brake System".
 After installing vehicle harness connector in th e actuator, make sure connector is securely locked.

REMOVAL
1. Drain engine coolant from drain plugs on radiat or and both side of cylinder block. Refer to CO-37, "Chang-
ing Engine Coolant" and EM-242, "Disassembly and Assembly".
CAUTION:
 Perform this step when engine is cold.
 Do not spill engine coolant on drive belts.
2. Remove engine cover with power tool. Refer to EM-169, "
Component".
3. Remove air duct (inlet). Refer to EM-173, "
Component".
4. Disconnect water suction hose from water inlet.
5. Remove water inlet and thermostat. CAUTION:
Do not disassemble thermostat.
6. Remove intake manifolds (upper and lower). Refer to EM-175, "
Component".
7. Disconnect radiator hose (upper) and wa ter hoses from thermostat housing.
8. Disconnect heater hoses from water outlet and heater pipe.
9. Remove thermostat housing, water outlet pipe, water connector, water control valve, water outlet and heater pipe.
CAUTION:
Do not disassemble water control valve.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
 Make sure that valves both in thermostat and water c ontrol valve are completely closing at normal tempera-
ture.
 Place a thread so that it is caught in the valves of the thermostat
and water control valve. Immerse fully in a container filled with
water. Heat while stirring. (The example in the figure shows ther-
mostat.)
 The valve opening temperature is the temperature at which the valve opens and falls from the thread.
 Continue heating. Check the maximum valve lift. NOTE:
The maximum valve lift standard temperature for water control
valve is the reference value.
 After checking the maximum valve lift, lower the water tempera-
ture and check the valve closing temperature.
Standard values:
 If the malfunctioning condition, when closing valve at nor mal temperature, or measured values are out of the
standard, replace thermostat and/or water control valve.
INSTALLATION
Note the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to spill engine coolant over en gine room. Use rag to absorb engine coolant.

COMBINATION METERS
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001328433
UNIFIED METER CONTROL UNIT
 Speedometer, odo/trip meter, tachometer, fuel gauge and water temperature gauge are controlled by the
unified meter control unit, which is built into the comb ination meter. Unified meter control unit receives sig-
nals from unified meter and A/C amp.
 Warning lamp and indicator lamp of combination meter are controlled by signals drawn from the unified meter and A/C amp.
 Odo/trip meter, A/T indicator and ICC system disp lay segments can be checked in self-diagnosis mode.
 Meters/gauges can be checked in self-diagnosis mode.
UNIFIED METER AND A/C AMP.
Refer to DI-26, "System Description" in “UNIFIED METER AND A/C AMP”.
POWER SUPPLY AND GROUND CIRCUIT
Power is supplied at all times
 through 10A fuse [No. 19, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
 to combination meter terminal 8, and
 to unified meter and A/C amp. terminal 21.
With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied
 through 10A fuse [No. 14, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
 to combination meter terminal 7,
 through 10A fuse [No. 12, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
 to unified meter and A/C amp. terminal 22.
With the ignition switch in the ACC or ON position, power is supplied
 through 10A fuse [No. 6, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
 to combination meter terminal 4,
 through 15A fuse [No. 10, located in the fuse block (J/B)], and
 through 15A fuse [No. 11, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
 to unified meter and A/C amp. terminal 46.
Ground is supplied
 to combination meter terminals 5, 6 and 15
 through grounds M35, M45 and M85,
 to unified meter and A/C amp. terminals 29 and 30
 through grounds M35, M45 and M85.
SPEEDOMETER
The speedometer indicates the vehicle speed.
 ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) provides a vehicle speed signal to the unified meter and A/C amp. with CAN communication.
 Unified meter and A/C amp. converts the vehicle s peed signal to the 8-pulse signal, and outputs the vehicle
speed signal (8-pulse) to combination meter.
 Combination meter indicates the vehicle speed according to vehicle speed signal (8-pulse) signal.
TACHOMETER
The tachometer indicates engine speed in revolutions per minute (rpm).
 ECM provides engine speed signal to unified meter and A/C amp. with CAN communication.
 Unified meter and A/C amp. transmits engine speed signal to combination meter with communication line.
