P1721 VEHICLE SPEED SIGNAL
P1721 VEHICLE SPEED SIGNAL
DescriptionINFOID:0000000001604106
The vehicle speed signal is transmitted from combination meter to TCM by CAN communication line. The sig-
nal functions as an auxiliary device to the output speed sensor when it is malfunctioning. The TCM will then
use the vehicle speed signal.

• Diagnostic trouble code “P1721” with CONSULT-III is det ected when TCM does not receive the proper vehi-
cle speed signal (input by CAN communication) from combination meter.
Possible CauseINFOID:0000000001604109
Harness or connectors
(The sensor circuit is open or shorted.)
DTC Confirmation ProcedureINFOID:0000000001604110
CAUTION:
Always drive vehicle at a safe speed.

After the repair, perform the following proc edure to confirm the malfunction is eliminated.
WITH CONSULT-III
1. Turn ignition switch “ON”. (Do not start engine.)
2. Select “DATA MONITOR” mode for “TRANSMISSION” with CONSULT-III.
3. Start engine and maintain the following conditions for at least 5 consecutive seconds. ACCELE POS: 1/8 or less
VHCL SPEED SE: 30 km/h (17 MPH) or more
4. If DTC is detected, go to TM-74, "
Diagnosis Procedure".
Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000001604111
1.CHECK CAN COMMUNICATION LINE
Perform the self-diagnosis. Refer TM-32, "
CONSULT-III Function (TRANSMISSION)".
Is a malfunction in the CAN communication indicated in the results?
YES >> Check CAN communication line. Refer to TM-38.
NO >> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK INPUT SIGNAL
With CONSULT-III
1. Start engine.
2. Select “ECU INPUT SIGNALS” in “DATA MONI TOR” mode for “TRANSMISSION” with CONSULT-III.
3. Drive vehicle and read out the value of “VHCL/S SE·MTR”.
OK or NG
Item name Condition Display value (km/h)
VHCL/S SE·MTR During driving Approximately matches the speedometer reading.
Item nameCondition Displa y value (Approx.)(km/h)

Work Flow".
WITH GST
Follow the procedure “With CONSULT-III”.
Judgement of InterlockINFOID:0000000001604116
• When Interlock is judged to be malfunctioning, the vehi cle should be fixed in 2GR, and should be set in a
condition in which it can travel.
