P1720 VSS

P1720 VSS

Description

INFOID:0000000004362289

ECM receives two vehicle speed signals via the CAN communication line. One is sent from “ABS actuator and

electric unit (control unit)” via the combination meter, and the other is from TCM (Transmission control mod-

ule). ECM uses these signals for engine control.

DTC DETECTION LOGIC

NOTE:

• If DTC P1720 is displayed with DTC UXXXX first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC UXXXX. Refer

to 

EC-1179, "DTC Logic"

.

• If DTC P1720 is displayed with DTC P0607, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC P0607. Refer

to 

EC-1378, "DTC Logic"

.

DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

1.

PRECONDITIONING

If DTC Confirmation Procedure has been previously conducted, always perform the following before conduct-

ing the next test.

1. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.

2. Turn ignition switch ON.

3. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.

>> GO TO 2.

2.

PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

1. Start engine.

2. Drive vehicle at a speed of 20 km/h (12 MPH) or more for at least 5 seconds without depressing the brake

pedal.

3. Check 1st trip DTC.
Is 1st trip DTC detected?

YES

>> Go to 

EC-1426, "Diagnosis Procedure"

.

NO

>> INSPECTION END

Diagnosis Procedure

INFOID:0000000004362291

1.

CHECK DTC WITH TCM

Check DTC with TCM. Refer to 

TM-221, "DTC Index"

.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> GO TO 2.

NO

>> Perform trouble shooting relevant to DTC indicated.

2.

CHECK DTC WITH “ABS ACTUATOR AND ELECTRIC UNIT (CONTROL UNIT)”

Refer to 

BRC-223, "DTC No. Index"

.

DTC No.

P1800 VIAS CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE 1

P1800 VIAS CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE 1

Description

INFOID:0000000004362292

The VIAS control solenoid valve 1 cuts the intake manifold vacuum signal for power valve 1 control. It

responds to ON/OFF signals from the ECM. When the solenoid is OFF, the vacuum signal from the intake

manifold is cut. When the ECM sends an ON signal the coil pulls the plunger downward and sends the vac-

uum signal to the power valve actuator 1.

DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

1.

CONDITIONING

If DTC Confirmation Procedure has been previously conducted, always perform the following before conduct-

ing the next test.

1. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.

2. Turn ignition switch ON.

3. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.

TESTING CONDITION:

Before performing the following procedure, confirm battery voltage is more than 11 V at idle.

>> GO TO 2.

2.

PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

1. Start engine and let it idle for at least 5 seconds.

2. Check 1st trip DTC.
Is 1st trip DTC detected?

YES

>> Go to 

EC-1428, "Diagnosis Procedure"

.

NO

>> INSPECTION END

Diagnosis Procedure

INFOID:0000000004362294

1.

CHECK VIAS CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE 1 POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT

1. Turn ignition switch OFF.

2. Disconnect VIAS control solenoid valve 1 harness connector.

3. Turn ignition switch ON.

4. Check the voltage between VIAS control solenoid valve 1 har-

ness connector and ground.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> GO TO 2.

NO

>> Repair open circuit, short to ground or short to power in

harness or connectors.

2.

CHECK VIAS CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE 1 OUTPUT SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR OPEN AND SHORT

1. Turn ignition switch OFF.

DTC No.
