DTC P0720 Output Speed Sensor Circuit

DTC P0722 Output Speed Sensor Circuit No Signal


DESCRIPTION

The ECM receives a signal from the secondary pulley speed sensor (transmission revolution sensor (NOUT)) installed in the continuously variable transaxle and determines the output shaft speed in order to control the gear ratio.
The transmission revolution sensor (NOUT) detects the continuously variable transaxle output shaft speed and sends it to the ECM.

  1. The vehicle is driven with the shift lever in D, the output shaft speed is 300 rpm or more, and no error is detected in the park/neutral position switch.
  2. The speed indicated by the transmission revolution sensor (NOUT) is less than 300 rpm.

  3. ECM

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The ECM receives a signal from the secondary pulley speed sensor (transmission revolution sensor (NOUT)) installed in the continuously variable transaxle and determines the output shaft speed in order to control the gear ratio.
If the ECM detects no signal from the secondary pulley speed sensor even while the vehicle is moving, it will conclude that there is a malfunction in the secondary pulley speed sensor. The ECM will illuminate the MIL and store the DTC.

  1. Remove the transmission revolution sensor (NOUT) (RAV4_ACA30 RM000000OE402CX.html).

  1. Connect the battery to the sensor as shown in the illustration.

  1. Wave a magnetic object left and right in front of the transmission revolution sensor tip (5 mm (0.197 in.) gap or closer) to change the high/low signals while measuring the current.

    NOTICE:
    Make sure to wave the magnetic object during the inspection. Current will not change without waving the magnetic object as indicated by the arrow in the illustration.
  1. Measure the current according to the value(s) in the table below.

    Standard Current:

5.PERFORM INITIALIZATION
NOTICE:
  1. Performing reset memory will clear the learned values of both the yaw rate sensor assembly*1 or deceleration sensor*2 (deceleration sensor 0 point calibration) and CVT oil pressure (CVT oil pressure calibration). Make sure to perform reset memory, yaw rate sensor assembly*1 or deceleration sensor*2 0 point calibration and CVT oil pressure calibration when replacing any of the parts shown in the following table:
    Replaced Part
    1. Continuously variable transaxle assembly
    2. ECM
    3. Oil pressure sensor
    4. Yaw rate sensor assembly (w/ VSC)
    5. Deceleration sensor (w/o VSC)
    6. Brake actuator assembly (skid control ECU)
  2. After performing reset memory, always perform yaw rate sensor assembly*1 or deceleration sensor*2 (deceleration sensor 0 point) calibration first, and then CVT oil pressure calibration.
  3. Always perform 0 point calibration with the vehicle on level ground.
  4. Do not shake or vibrate the vehicle during 0 point calibration.
  1. Using the intelligent tester, perform reset memory, deceleration sensor 0 point calibration and CVT oil pressure calibration (RAV4_ACA30 RM000003UQR002X.html).

  1. Check that no DTC is stored.
