DTC C1273/73 Low Output Signal of Rear Speed Sensor RH (Test Mode DTC)

DTC C1274/74 Low Output Signal of Rear Speed Sensor LH (Test Mode DTC)

Description

The speed sensor detects wheel speed and sends the appropriate signals to the skid control ECU. These signals are used for the ABS control system. 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 ECU. DTCs C1273/73 and C1274/74 can be deleted when the speed sensor sends a vehicle speed signal or the Test Mode ends. DTCs C1273/73 and C1274/74 are output only in the Test Mode.
