DESCRIPTION
Vehicles, which are equipped with ABS (Anti-lock Brake System), detect the vehicle speed using the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) and speed sensors. Each speed sensor monitors the wheel rotation speed and sends a signal to the skid control ECU. The skid control ECU converts the wheel speed signals into a 4-pulse signal and transmits it to the ECM via the combination meter assembly. The ECM determines the vehicle speed based on the frequency of the pulse signal.

P050031 |
While vehicle being driven, no vehicle speed sensor signal transmitted to ECM (2 trip detection logic). |
|
P0500 |
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
If there is no speed signal from the combination meter assembly even though the ECM determines that the vehicle is being driven, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the speed signal circuit. The ECM then stores this DTC.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
HINT:
After performing repair, clear the DTCs and perform the following procedure to check that DTCs are not output.
PROCEDURE
1. |
READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (VEHICLE SPEED) |
(a) Drive the vehicle and check whether the operation of the speedometer in the combination meter assembly is normal.
HINT:
(b) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(c) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(d) Turn the Techstream on.
(e) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / Vehicle Speed.

(f) Drive the vehicle.
(g) According to the display on the Techstream, read the Data List.
OK:
The values displayed on the Techstream and speedometer are equal.

CHECK DTC OUTPUT (DTC P050031) |
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(c) Turn the Techstream on.
(d) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Transmission / Trouble Codes.
(e) Read the DTCs.

CHECK METER / GAUGE SYSTEM |
(a) Proceed to Speed Signal Circuit in Meter / Gauge System (See page
).
|
5. |
CONFIRM WHETHER MALFUNCTION HAS BEEN SUCCESSFULLY REPAIRED |
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(c) Turn the Techstream on.
(d) Clear the DTCs
(e) Turn the ignition switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
(f) Start the engine.
(g) Turn the Techstream on.
(h) Drive the vehicle for 6 seconds or more.
(i) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Transmission / Trouble Codes.
(j) Read the DTCs.
HINT:
If no DTCs (no pending DTCs) are output, the repair has been successfully completed.

DESCRIPTION
When the dynamic radar cruise control system is turned on using the cruise control
main switch (ON-OFF button), the cruise control indicator (vehicle-to-vehicle distance
