OUTPUT SHAFT SPEED SENSOR CHECK



1.
caution Be careful not to damage a connector terminal.
Disconnect the A/T control solenoid valve assembly connector.
2.Use the special tool (MB991709) to check the continuity between the terminals according to the table below.
Measurement terminal No.
Continuity
23 - body earth
No
24 - body earth
23 - 24
Yes



3.If the measurements do not satisfy the table, check the internal parts in the transmission according to the procedure below:
(1) Remove the drain plug (overflow plug) and overflow tube and then drain fluid (refer to ).
(2) Remove the transmission oil pan and the valve body to remove the output shaft speed sensor (refer to GROUP 23B - Oil Pan and Valve Body Assembly Removal and Installation ).
(3) Check the wiring harness between the output shaft speed sensor connector and the A/T control solenoid valve assembly connector for open or short circuit, or other faults.
(4)
caution A 100-Ω resistor, which has a rated output of 2 W, should be used. Otherwise, a scalding or a fire may be caused.
Connect the output shaft speed sensor connector terminal No. 2 to the positive battery terminal. Connect a 100-Ω resistor and an ammeter between the terminal No.1 and the negative battery terminal.
(5) When a piece of non-magnetised metal is shaken right-and-left within 5 mm away from the tip of the output shaft speed sensor, the electric current should satisfy the table below:

Standard value:
Signal
Current (mA)
High
12.0 - 16.0
Low
4.0 - 8.0
4.If the wiring harness is faulty, replace the transmission wiring harness as an assembly.
5.If the table is not satisfied, replace the output shaft speed sensor.
