*d

No clearance

(b) Check the front speed sensor RH installation.

OK:

There is no clearance between the front speed sensor RH and front axle carrier sub-assembly.

The installation bolt is tightened properly.

REINSTALL OR REPLACE FRONT SPEED SENSOR RH

OK

2.

CHECK FRONT SPEED SENSOR RH (CHECK FOR FOREIGN MATTER)

(a) Remove the front speed sensor RH.

Click here

(b) Check the front speed sensor RH tip.

OK:

The front speed sensor RH tip is free of scratches, oil, and foreign matter.

NOTICE:

  • If there is oil or foreign matter on the front speed sensor RH, clean the front speed sensor RH.
  • If the front speed sensor RH is damaged, replace the front speed sensor RH with a new one.

CLEAN OR REPLACE FRONT SPEED SENSOR RH
OK

3.

READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (FR WHEEL SPEED)

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Turn the engine switch on (IG).

(d) Start the engine.

(e) Perform a road test.

(f) Check the speed value output from the speed sensor displayed on the Techstream.

HINT:

Factors that affect the indicated vehicle speed include tire size, tire pressure, and tire wear. The speed indicated on the speedometer has an allowable margin of error. This can be tested using a speedometer tester (calibrated chassis dynamometer). For details about testing and the margin of error, see the reference chart.

OK:

The speed value output from the speed sensor displayed on the Techstream is similar to the speed indicated on the speedometer.
