INSPECTION PROCEDURE

CHECK FRONT SPEED SENSOR INSTALLATION

INSPECT FRONT SPEED SENSOR TIP

INSPECT FRONT SPEED SENSOR ROTOR

READ VALUE USING GTS (FR/FL WHEEL SPEED)

REPLACE FRONT SPEED SENSOR

RECONFIRM DTC

DTC C1401 Front Speed Sensor RH Malfunction

DTC C1271 Low Output Signal of Front Speed Sensor RH (Test Mode DTC)

DTC C1272 Low Output Signal of Front Speed Sensor LH (Test Mode DTC)

DTC C1402 Front Speed Sensor LH Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

The speed sensor detects the wheel speed and sends the appropriate signals to the skid control ECU (master cylinder solenoid). These signals are used for brake control.


  • HINT:
  • When the connectors between the speed sensor and skid control ECU (master cylinder solenoid) are connected, the following waveform is output.

DTC CodeDTC Detection ConditionTrouble Area
C1401
C1402
One of the following conditions is met:
At a vehicle speed of 10 km/h (6 mph) or more, the output voltage from one of the speed sensors is less than that from the other sensors for 15 seconds or more.
At a vehicle speed of less than 10 km/h (6 mph), the output from one of the speed sensors is 0 km/h (0 mph) for 1 second or more.
At a vehicle speed of 10 km/h (6 mph) or more, the outputs from both front speed sensors are 0 km/h (0 mph) for 15 seconds or more.

  • HINT:
DTCs C1401 and C1271 are for the front speed sensor RH.
DTCs C1402 and C1272 are for the front speed sensor LH.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

  • NOTICE:
  • Check the speed sensor signal after cleaning or replacement ().
1.CHECK FRONT SPEED SENSOR INSTALLATION

Turn the ignition switch off.

Dtc C1401  Front Speed Sensor Rh Malfunction. BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS. Land Cruiser URJ200  URJ202 GRJ200 VDJ200

Check the speed sensor installation ().

  • OK:
  • There is no clearance between the sensor and the front steering knuckle.
  • The installation bolt is tightened properly.

INSTALL FRONT SPEED SENSOR CORRECTLY
OK
2.INSPECT FRONT SPEED SENSOR TIP

Remove the front speed sensor ().

Check the speed sensor tip.

  • OK:
  • No scratches, oil, or foreign matter on the sensor tip.
  • NOTICE:
  • If no damage to the speed sensor tip is found during this inspection, do not replace the speed sensor.
NG
CLEAN OR REPLACE FRONT SPEED SENSOR
OK
3.INSPECT FRONT SPEED SENSOR ROTOR

Remove the front axle hub sub-assembly ().

Check the speed sensor rotor.

  • OK:
  • No scratches, oil, or foreign matter on the rotors.
  • HINT:
  • The front speed sensor rotor is incorporated into the front axle with ABS rotor bearing assembly.
  • If the front speed sensor rotor needs to be replaced, replace it together with the front axle with ABS rotor bearing assembly.
NG
CLEAN OR REPLACE FRONT SPEED SENSOR ROTOR
OK
4.READ VALUE USING GTS (FR/FL WHEEL SPEED)

Turn the ignition switch off.

Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

Start the engine.

Turn the GTS on.

Enter the following menus: Chassis / ABS/VSC/TRC / Data List.

ABS/VSC/TRC
Tester DisplayMeasurement Item/RangeNormal ConditionDiagnostic Note
FR Wheel SpeedFront speed sensor RH reading/ Min.: 0 km/h (0 mph), Max.: 326 km/h (202 mph)Actual wheel speedNo large fluctuations when driving at a constant speed.
FL Wheel SpeedFront speed sensor LH reading/ Min.: 0 km/h (0 mph), Max.: 326 km/h (202 mph)Actual wheel speedNo large fluctuations when driving at a constant speed.

Check that there is no difference between the speed value output from the speed sensor displayed on the GTS and the speed value displayed on the speedometer when driving the vehicle.

  • HINT:
  • Factors that affect the indicated vehicle speed include tire size, tire inflation 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, refer to the reference chart ().
  • OK:
  • The speed value output from the speed sensor displayed on the GTS is the same as the actual vehicle speed measured using a speedometer tester (calibrated chassis dynamometer).

CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS ()
5.REPLACE FRONT SPEED SENSOR

Replace the front speed sensor ().

6.RECONFIRM DTC

Clear the DTC ().

Turn the ignition switch off.

Start the engine.

Drive the vehicle at a speed of 40 km/h (25 mph) or more for at least 60 seconds.

Check if the same DTC is output ().
