Dynamic Radar Cruise Control System

CRUISE CONTROL: DYNAMIC RADAR CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM: P0500: Vehicle Speed Sensor Malfunction

DTC P0500 - Vehicle Speed Sensor Malfunction

DTC P0503 - Vehicle Speed Sensor "A" Intermittent / Erratic / High

DESCRIPTION

The dynamic radar cruise control system uses the same vehicle speed signal that is sent to the ECM for the SFI system. If DTC P0500 or P0503 is detected, perform the diagnosis using the inspection procedure for DTC P0500 in the SFI system (for 2UR-GSE) P0500. The speed signal is converted for use by the cruise control inside the ECM. Both the SFI system and the dynamic radar cruise control system can set DTC P0500, however, the detection conditions of the two systems are different.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT: Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can be helpful in determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, whether the engine was warmed up or not, whether the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other data recorded at the time of a malfunction.

PROCEDURE

1. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (VEHICLE SPEED)
(a) Drive the vehicle check whether the operation of the speedometer in the combination meter is normal.
HINT:
- The vehicle speed sensor is operating normally if the speedometer reading is normal.
- If the speedometer does not operate, check it by following the procedure described in speedometer malfunction.
(b) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(c) Turn the engine switch on (IG).
(d) Turn the Techstream ON.
(e) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / Vehicle Speed.
(f) Drive the vehicle.
(g) Read the value displayed on the Techstream.
OK:
Vehicle speeds displayed on the Techstream and speedometer display are equal.
NG -- CHECK COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY (SPD SIGNAL WAVEFORM)
OK -- CHECK INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS
2. CHECK COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY (SPD SIGNAL WAVEFORM)
(a) Inspect the combination meter assembly using an oscilloscope.
(1) More the shift lever to N.
(2) Jack up the vehicle.
(3) Turn the engine switch on (IG).





(4) Measure the voltage between the terminal of the combination meter and body ground while the while is turned slowly.
Standard Voltage:





HINT: The output voltage should fluctuate up and down, similarly to the diagram, when the wheel is turned slowly.

NG -- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY - ECM)
OK -- Continue to next step.

3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY - ECM)




(a) Disconnect the combination meter connector.
(b) Disconnect the ECM connector.
(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance (Check for Open):





(d) Reconnect the combination meter connector.
(e) Reconnect the ECM connector.
NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- REPLACE ECM
4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY - ECM)




(a) Disconnect the combination meter connector.
(b) Disconnect the ECM connector.
(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance (Check for Short):





(d) Reconnect the combination meter connector.
(e) Reconnect the ECM connector.
NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY
