Description

The speed sensor detects wheel speed and sends the appropriate signals to the ECU. These signals are used to control the Multi-terrain ABS, EBD, BA, VSC, A-TRC, CRAWL and hill-start assist control systems. This speed sensor contains a sensor IC, which consists of 2 MREs (Magnetic Resistance Element). The speed sensor rotor, which consists of 48 sets of N and S poles that are arranged in a circle, is integrated with the inner race of the hub bearing. To detect the rotation direction, the output waves are used to determine the relationship of the pulses that are generated by 2 MREs. Upon receiving this signal, the sensor IC outputs a forward or backward wave to the skid control ECU.
