Toyota Corolla (E120): Malfunction in speedometer
Wiring diagram
Inspection procedure
1 Check combination meter assy
- Remove the combination meter assy with connector still connected.
- check voltage.
- Jack up either of the front wheels.
- Shift the shift lever to neutral.
- Turn the ignition switch to on.
- Measure the voltage between terminals c9–9 of combination meter assy and body ground when front wheel is turning slowly.
Standard voltage: voltage is generated intermittently.
Result:
Check and replace combination meter assy
2 Check obd ii scan tool or hand–held tester
- Check output value of skid control ecu.
- Connect the hand–held tester to dlc3.
- Turn the ignition switch to on and push the hand–held tester main switch on.
- Select the data list mode on the hand–held tester.
- Check that there is no difference between the speed value output
from the speed sensor displayed
by the hand–held tester and the speed value displayed by the speedometer
when driving
the vehicle.
Ok: there is almost no difference from the displayed speed value.
Repair or replace harness or connector
3 Inspect speedometer sensor
- Check voltage.
- Shift the shift lever to neutral.
- Jack up either of the front wheel.
- Turn the ignition switch to on.
- Measure voltage between terminals 3 and 2 of speed sensor when the front wheel is turning slowly.
Standard voltage: voltage is generated intermittently.
Repair or replace harness or connector

Circuit description
A thermistor is built in the engine coolant temperature sensor and changes
the resistance value according
to the engine coolant temperature.
The structure of the sensor and connection to the ecm is the same as those of
the intake air temperature
sensor.
Hint:
if the ecm detects the dtc ...
Inspection procedure
Hint:
if different dtcs related to different systems that have terminal e2
as the ground terminal are output
simultaneously, terminal e2 may be open.

Safety information for children
Observe the following precautions when children are in the vehicle.
Use a child restraint system appropriate for the child, until the child becomes
large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt.
● It is recommended that children sit in the rear seats to avoid accidental contact
