  1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (MOMENTARY INTERRUPTION) 
    1. Using the Techstream, check for any momentary interruptions in the wire harness and connector corresponding to a DTC (See page. Refer to CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS [09/2014 - ] ).
      ABS/VSC/TRAC

      Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      RR Speed Open Rear speed sensor RH open detection / Error or Normal Error: Momentary interruption
      Normal: Normal
      -
      RL Speed Open Rear speed sensor LH open detection / Error or Normal Error: Momentary interruption
      Normal: Normal
      -

      OK

      There are no momentary interruptions.

      HINT: 

      Perform the above inspection before removing the sensor and connector.

    Result:  NG

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    Result:  OK

    OK 

    See step  2

  2. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (REAR SPEED SENSOR) 
    1. Select the Data List on the Techstream (See page. Refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST [09/2014 - 10/2015] Refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST [10/2015 - ] ).
      ABS/VSC/TRAC

      Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      RR Wheel Speed Rear wheel speed sensor RH / Min.: 0 km/h (0 mph), Max.: 326 km/h (202 mph) Vehicle stopped: 0 km/h (0 mph) When driving at constant speed: No large fluctuations
      RL Wheel Speed Rear wheel speed sensor LH / Min.: 0 km/h (0 mph), Max.: 326 km/h (202 mph) Vehicle stopped: 0 km/h (0 mph) When driving at constant speed: No large fluctuations
    2. Check the speed value output from the speed sensor displayed on the Techstream.

      HINT: 

      Factors that affect the indicated vehicle speed include tire size, tire inflation, and tire wear. The speed indicated on the speedometer has an allowable margin of error. This can be tested using a speedometer tester (calibrated chassis dynamometer). For details about testing and the margin of error, see the reference chart (See page. Refer to OPERATION CHECK [09/2014 - 10/2015] Refer to OPERATION CHECK [10/2015 - ] ).

      OK

      The speed value output from the speed sensor displayed on the Techstream is similar to the speed indicated on the speedometer.
