DTC B15C2 Speed Signal Malfunction


DESCRIPTION

Navigation function:
The navigation receiver assembly receives a vehicle speed signal from the combination meter assembly and vehicle speed information from the navigation antenna, and then adjusts vehicle position.
The navigation receiver assembly stores this DTC when the difference between the speed information that the navigation antenna receives and the SPD pulse received from the combination meter assembly becomes large.
ASL function:
The circuit is necessary for the ASL (Automatic Sound Levelizer) built into the navigation receiver assembly. Speed signals are received from the combination meter and used for the ASL. The ASL function automatically adjusts the sound volume in order to maintain clear audio sound even when vehicle noise increases (as vehicle noise increases, the volume is turned up, etc.).
HINT:
  1. A voltage of 12 V or 5 V is output from each ECU connected to the combination meter assembly, and then input to the combination meter assembly. The signal is changed to a pulse signal at the transistor in the combination meter assembly. Each ECU controls its respective systems based on the pulse signal.
  2. If a short occurs in any of the ECUs or in the wire harness connected to an ECU, all systems in the diagram below will not operate normally.

DTC No.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

1.CHECK VEHICLE SENSOR (OPERATION CHECK)


    Camry. Acv40 Gsv40
  1. Enter the "Vehicle Sensors" (Check GPS&Vehicle Sensor) (CAMRY_ACV40 RM000003SKF042X.html).

  1. While driving the vehicle, compare the "SPD" indicator to the reading on the speedometer. Check if these readings are almost equal.

    OK:
    The readings are almost equal.

  1. Check the input waveform.

    1. Remove the combination meter assembly with the connector(s) still connected.

    2. Connect an oscilloscope to terminal F2-12 (+S) and body ground.

    3. Turn the ignition switch ON.

    4. Turn the wheel slowly.

    5. Check the signal waveform according to the condition(s) in the table below.

      Condition
      Measurement terminal
      F2-12 (+S) - Body ground
      Tool setting
      5 V/DIV., 20 ms./DIV.
      Vehicle condition
      Driving at approx. 20 km/h (12 mph)

      Component without harness connected
      (Combination Meter Assembly)
      OK:
      The waveform is displayed as shown in the illustration.
      HINT:
      When the system is functioning normally, one wheel revolution generates 4 pulses. As the vehicle speed increases, the width indicated by (A) in the illustration narrows.
