DESCRIPTION

When foreign matter adheres to the speed sensor tip or speed sensor rotor, these DTCs are output. An abnormal waveform input from the sensor determines these conditions.
These DTCs may be detected when a malfunction occurs in the connector terminals or wire harness of the speed sensor circuit.
DTCs C1275/75 to C1278/78 will be cleared when the speed sensor sends a wheel speed signal or when Test Mode ends. DTCs from C1275/75 to C1278/78 are output only in Test Mode.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
When replacing the brake booster with master cylinder (skid control ECU), perform initialization and calibration of the linear solenoid valve (Click here).

1.CHECK DTC
  1. Check that no speed sensor malfunction DTC is output (Click here).

    HINT:
    When C1464/31, C1465/32, C1466/33, and/or C1467/34 are output together with C1235/35, C1236/36, C1238/38, and/or C1239/39, inspect and repair the trouble areas indicated by C1464/31, C1465/32, C1466/33, and/or C1467/34 first.

2.CHECK FRONT SPEED SENSOR AND FRONT SPEED SENSOR ROTOR
  1. Remove the front speed sensor and front speed sensor rotor (Click here and Click here).

  1. Check the speed sensor tip and speed sensor rotor.

    OK:
    The sensor tip and rotor is free of scratches, oil, and foreign matter.

    NOTICE:
    1. If no damage to the speed sensor tip is found during this inspection, do not replace the speed sensor.
      If there are any ferrous metal filings stuck to the rotor, this will result in a malfunction, so confirm that the rotor is not contaminated with foreign matter before replacing the sensor.
    2. Check the speed sensor signal after cleaning or replacement (Click here).
