Toyota Yaris: Manual Transaxle System / Vehicle Speed Sensor "A" No Signal (P050031)
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 (brake actuator assembly). The skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) 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.
HINT:
-
Various systems use the vehicle speed signal distributed from the combination meter assembly. Check all the components possibly related to the speed signal.
-
A voltage of 12 V or 5 V is output from each ECU and then input to the combination meter assembly. The signal is changed to a pulse signal at the transistor in the combination meter assembly. Each ECU controls the respective system based on the pulse signal.
-
If a short occurs in any of the ECUs or in the wire harness connected to an ECU, all systems using the speed signal will not operate normally.
DTC No. | Detection Item | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area | MIL | Memory | Note |
P050031 | Vehicle Speed Sensor "A" No Signal | While vehicle being driven, no vehicle speed sensor signal transmitted to ECM for 5.25 seconds (2 trip detection logic). | -
Open or short in speed signal circuit
-
Combination meter assembly
-
ECM
| Comes on | DTC stored | SAE Code: 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 a DTC.
CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN
CAUTION:
When performing the confirmation driving pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.
HINT:
After repairs have been completed, clear the DTCs and then check that the vehicle has returned to normal by performing the following All Readiness check procedure.
-
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
-
Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.
-
Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
-
Turn the ignition switch off and wait for 2 minutes or more.
-
Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.
-
Start the engine.
-
While driving the vehicle with any gear selected and the clutch engaged, allow the vehicle to decelerate so that fuel cut is performed for 6 seconds or more.
-
Stop the vehicle.
-
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / All Readiness.
-
Input the DTC: P050031.
-
Check the DTC judgment result.
GTS Display | Description |
NORMAL | -
DTC judgment completed
-
System normal
|
ABNORMAL | -
DTC judgment completed
-
System abnormal
|
INCOMPLETE | -
DTC judgment not completed
-
Perform driving pattern after confirming DTC enabling conditions
|
N/A | -
Unable to perform DTC judgment
-
Number of DTCs which do not fulfill DTC preconditions has reached ECU memory limit
|
HINT:
-
If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.
-
If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
-
If the judgment result shows INCOMPLETE or N/A, perform the Confirmation Driving Pattern and check the DTC judgment result again.
