AT340E (2JZ–GE) AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION – TROUBLESHOOTING
DTC 61 No. 2 Vehicle Speed Sensor Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The No. 2 vehicle speed sensor detects the rotation speed of the transmission output shaft and sends
signals to the ECM. The ECM determines the vehicle speed based on these signals. An AC voltage
is generated in the No.2 vehicle speed sensor coil as the rotor mounted on the output shaft rotates,
and this voltage is sent to the ECM.
The gear shift point and lock–up timing are controlled by the ECM based on the signals from this vehicle
speed sensor and the throttle position sensor signal.
If the No.2 vehicle speed sensor malfunctions, the ECM uses input signals from the No.1 vehicle speed
sensor as a back–up signal.
