Lexus RX (RX 350L, RX450h) 2016-2026 Repair Manual: Vehicle Speed Signal Circuit between Navigation ECU and Combination Meter
DESCRIPTION
The navigation ECU receives a vehicle speed signal from the combination meter assembly.
HINT:
- 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 its respective systems based on this pulse signal.
- If a short occurs in any of the ECUs or in the wire harness connected to an ECU, all systems in the following diagram will not operate normally.
WIRING DIAGRAM
PROCEDURE
| 1. | CHECK COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY (OUTPUT WAVEFORM) |
| (a) Check the output waveform. (1) Remove the combination meter assembly with the connector still connected. (2) Connect an oscilloscope to terminal J10-19 (+S) and body ground. (3) Turn the engine switch on (IG). (4) Turn a wheel slowly. (5) Check the signal waveform according to the condition(s) in the table below.
OK: The waveform is similar to that shown in the illustration. HINT: When the system is functioning normally, one wheel revolution generates 4 pulses. As the vehicle speed increases, the width indicated by (A) in the illustration narrows. |

| NG |  | GO TO METER / GAUGE SYSTEM |
|
| 2. | INSPECT NAVIGATION ECU (INPUT WAVEFORM) |
| (a) Check the input waveform. (1) Remove the navigation ECU with the connector(s) still connected. (2) Connect an oscilloscope to terminal J153-9 (SPD) and body ground. (3) Turn the engine switch on (IG). (4) Turn a wheel slowly. (5) Check the signal waveform according to the condition(s) in the table below.
OK: The waveform is similar to that shown in the illustration. HINT: When the system is functioning normally, one wheel revolution generates 4 pulses. As the vehicle speed increases, the width indicated by (A) in the illustration narrows. |
