Crown 1UZFE ECT speed sensor inputs **now with pics** Wed, 24 March 2004 01:27 Go to next message
Sorted out most of the wiring from the half cut but one thing has me bamboozled - the speed sensors on the auto and their input into the ECT ECU.

The ECT has 2 speed signal inputs - SP and SP1.

SP1 is a black wire with orange stripe and pink hoops. It comes from the ABS ECU which gets it signal from the reed switch style speed sensor with the dark green, light green and red wires. I presume the ABS ECU does something with the signal from the sensor and spits out something down SP1 that the ECT can understand. What signal does the SP1 input need for the ECT to function?

SP is a violet wire with white stripe and pink hoops. It comes from the engine ECU (pinout ECO). However I can't find a speed input for the engine ECU. Which wire is this and what signal does it need for the ECU to correctly interpret it?

The other speedo style speed sensor has 3 wires coming from it. I'm just wondering where they go? My loom is chopped now and I can't easily trace the wires. I have traced them as far as the fuse box and then into the car but thereafter I am lost.

I understand that I only need one of these signals to work for the auto trans to work properly (although I do understand it will spit out codes saying the other sensor has failed).

Cheers Dave.

PS. Yes, I have posted this on Lextreme forums.

i know that typically, the purple/white wire is the speed sensor input for the engine ECU (at least this is how it is for all the 4ag motors, and 3sg motors that i've played with), and this signal is normally a pulse.

I know that the 1UZ is pretty crazy with all its wiring and controls, but typically this purple/white wire is just a pulse input to the engine ECU, and in the cases i've had, it usually comes from the instrument cluster, driven by the electronic speedo dial (which gets it signal from the electronic speedo drive).

I dont really know if im helping at all now....

Anyway, good luck Dave, one day i'll do this all myself and learn what's going on there....

argh...so much confusion! Confused

That's what I thought about the purple white wire. Do you know if that wire is a 4 pulse per revolution wire? If so then I have a cheat's way to sort this out.

I need to find a half dismantled Crown UZS131 halfcut. Quickly.

on the AE101 and AE92 rollas, yes it is a 4 pulse per revolution thing.

Hence some people with 20V's hook up a 2 pulse per revolution with magnets and reed switch (could use hall effect sens of course) to give the ECU a speed signal to obtain full RPM ability and remove the 180kph speed cut. Just what you are thinking i bet!

I do remember a black/oragne wire in my travels, but i cannot remmeber what for.

Give MOS a call.. its always good to bug him Smile

Yeah 4 pulses/rev for the sensor going to ECU.
The one that goes to the dash is 20 pulses/rev and is then divided down to 4p/r and sent to the ECU. This is the main sensor which is used. If it fails the ECU then uses the sensor which goes straight to it.

That's good news all. I will check on a friend's half cut on the weekend, but failing that, I will plug in an ST141 speed sensor.

Thankyou very much. Cool

There are many different ways in which Toyota notate speed sensors and it can get confusing. I've seen SPD, SP1, SP2, SP20, -S/+S, -SP2/+SP2 all used from time but the basic function is the same: one speed sensor is the primary signal from the speedo and one is the back-up signal either directly from the gearbox or from the ABS unit.

The number of revolutions can vary from model to model but most use 4 pulse/rev from the speedo and 1 pulse/rev from the back-up (although Soarers tend to use a modulated signal for back-up). The signal from the speedo is a positive signal i.e. the hall effect sensor in the speedo generates a 0 - +6 (or 12) volt pulse whereas the back-up signal is already a 6 or 12 volt output that is grounded every revolution of the tailshaft.

SP1 is usually the primary signal but in your case it is the back-up and SP is the primary. The sensor in the box is actually the ABS sensor which is why SP1 comes from the ABS computer. In cars without ABS, the space occupied by the ABS sensor is fitted with either a simple reed switch or an inductor (for Soarers).

To get SP working you will need the dash to work. If you are not planning to run ABS and just want to get the 1UZ changing gears then get yourself a reed sensor from a mid 80's Toyota that does not use ABS. The sensor is about 10mm in diameter and about 25mm long with either single or twin wires. Stick a small magnet onto the tailshaft (I find the uni joint is a good location) and mount the sensor no more than 5mm away. That should get you going.

Grant = lifesaver. Very Happy

Thankyou very much.

Just to clarify I would hook up the reed switch wire to the SP1 wire that would ordinarily come out of the ABS? (I have no plans to run ABS.)

Cheers Dave.

Sorry if this is really elementary - I'm a Crown driver and this is well beyond the limits of my electronics knowledge. I'm more used to shorting out terminals with coat hangers to get 2Ms running. Laughing

Yep, exactly Dave. Run the wire from the ecu directly to the reed switch. As for the magnet, I find the jaycar ones work best. They are very powerful and small (about 6mm diam).

Re: Crown 1UZFE ECT speed sensor inputs Thu, 25 March 2004 00:18 Go to previous messageGo to next message
yep.. we call them the "rare earth" magnets. And by golly they are freaken strong.

Grant, so this reed sensor is basically just a reed switch? In which case you could use any off the shelf reed switch to obtain the same result (just without the useful casing)?
And im assuming of course that you have the reed switch switching 12V to the ECU (using a NO reed).

I ask because there are a lot of people with 4A-GE 20V's who want do this when converting into an AE82 or AE92 (carby model) so that they get full RPM ability from the 20V.

I guess you could use any reed switch but they may not be robust enough to use on the underside of a car. The factor sensor is better if you have the time to hunt for them. All 5MGE auto's had them and also 7MGE auto's that didn't have ABS fitted to the car.

The switch needs to be normally open as you suggested and switched to ground. Remember though, these are a back-up sensor and in some cases may not produce as precise shift patterns as the 4 pulse/rev signal from the dash.

As it turned out Allan had a stockpile of dead 5MGE and 7MGE autos in his garage. Confirmed they were reed switch style speed sensors. He whipped off the extension housing and removed the speedo drive gear (retained by circlip and little steel ball) and aluminium magnet retainer (kept in place with a little Woodruff key). Brought it around, confirmed the extension housing was almost identical, whipped off the Crown auto extension housing, removed the Crown auto 20 toothed chopper wheel and speedo drive, replaced the chopper wheel with the rotating magnet assembly and whacked it all back together. Spun it over and yep one pulse per revolution.

Just what the doctor ordered. Very Happy

Did a quick search on the EPC. All these bits should be readily available at wreckers but should you desire new bits, here are the part numbers.
Rotating magnet assembly: 89414-30020
Speed sensor: 89411-22060 or 89411-22061

i do have these devices that have 4 pulses every revolution

u unscrew cable speedo from gbox

screw this device in

then screw yr cable for the speedo back into the device


the device has 12v earth and a pulse wire

this way u can send a signal to the ecu and yr speedo cable works at the same time


this is only good if yr speedo is cable driven

theyre 150 bucks

Interesting that the 5M/7M rotating magnet interchanged with the 1UZ. I didn't bother suggesting that as I didn't think it would swap over. Don't you just love Toyota engineering!

It's a great result! What pleases me the most is that it is a visually appealing, tidy, entirely factory solution.

Of course, in doing this I wrecked the extension housing gasket. I have ordered another so when I replace it this arvo, I'll take some pics and post them up.

Speed sensors. The single wire sensor is the reed switch speed sensor, whilst the 3 wire sensor is what is fitted to the Crown UZS131 A340 gearbox.

Shouldn't that be 4 pulses per revolution for 1uzfe ECUs.
This is what all the manuals claim. 4pulses/rev for the backup/no1 sensor which goes straight to the ECU and 20pulses/rev for the main/no2 which goes to the dash and then divided by 5 and sent to the ECU.

hey kdog ive been havin issues with my 1uz
but sort of know how it all goes

on a crown it has like 20 pulses every rev that goes to the speedo
then the speedo sends 4 pulses every rev to the engine ecu and the auto ecu


speed sensor no2 is different im not to sure on how many pulses but this is 3 wire sensor and it sends the signal to the abs computer the signal then comes out of the abs computer
im not to sure in what form
as i am goin to try hook up the abs ecu just for this

i tried bypassing the abs ecu and runnin the speed sensor no2 straight to the auto ecu but the ecu still brings up a code 61
which is speed sensor no2

hopeffully in afew weeks i can figure it all out

Yeah I could sort it all out in a flash if I had a half cut to work from. I haven't had one at my disposal for about 4 years so everything I know is from memory or rough notes I took when I setup the bench testing unit for the ECUs.
If you wanted to run the auto I would take the signal from the speed sensor that goes to the dash. Remove the 20 pulse wheel and cut it back to only 4 teeth then use this. It should work.

yer my hilux has a digital speedo
so i have fitted the 4 pulse sensor that was in factory hilux auto to the 1uz auto gbox

the signal goes to the dash then to the ecu
everything goes good
i just want to fix error code 61 which isnt a prob its just that it makes o/d light flash
but its good to learn how everything works in the end

hey kdog
do u know if this is normal

when i am cruising about 60 or 80
i put accel flat to floor
it kicks down 1 or 2 gears
feels like the timing is retarded for 3 or so seconds of acceleration then u feel the full power come on

if i accell say to 80 or 90% and it kicks down its ok doesnt feel like it retards the timing

thanks for yr help

Yeah it reduces the engine power when going through gear changes to prevent too much shock on the gearbox (wear on clutches). Guess it doesn't consider 80% - 90% to be too much power. Standard for most auto toyotas.

error code 61 is the No2 speed sensor. I wonder if you put the speed sensor into the other speed input on the ECU if the error code would switch to 42 (the No1 speed sensor error code).
If it does and still runs normally then it would be a good indication that the ECU is not receiving the correct number of pulses/rev for the other input.

i tried that
i put the 4 pulses into the abs no2 speed sensor

stupid thing would not change gears

there is afew things maybe conributing to all this

i dont know why but

i am using the factory hilux speed sensor in gbox and the speedo reads out
nothin i have done explains y
unless the worm drive on the crown gbox is different gearing/angle than the hilux auto
but y would toyota do that

so my speedo reads out by about 20kms at 100
so the speed no1 and speed no2 wont read that smae percentage
the ecu will read both speeds and see one is out
so im goin to fix the speedo to read accurately then see

atleast its a good learnin thingy
and i will dummy fit the abs ecu and see if that gets rid of fault

another thing is

if i erase codes

start car dirve for long time i get no errors

once i turn car off for abit
then restart it i get the error straight away

ive been told this is when the car does its routine diagnosis maybe

anyway it drives ok but it would be nice to fix all error codes
so i can help people for future refence as ive got some 1uz autos to do in comin months

wiring up the crown ecus for auto is like wiring 2 and a half ecus

Yeah I guess the ABS ECU must modify the speed signal before it goes to the ECUs. Maybe it divides it down by some factor. It would be nice to get into a running half cut and measure everything.
If you have a standard crown then its not usually a problem you either use the dash or a speed drive with only 4 pulses/rev and ignore the error code for the other speed sensor not being there. Which Speed inputs are yours going to SP or SP1?

Gianttomato,
Does you car drive OK with only the 1pulse/rev drive in it? Which speed input is this going into SP or SP1.

I wonder if anyone in the ACT has one I could look at, might have to do some investigating.

Re: Crown 1UZFE ECT speed sensor inputs **now with pics** Wed, 28 April 2004 22:47 Go to previous messageGo to next message
i am goin to buy the crown workshopp manual from japan

but with the info i recently found i had speed sensor no2 wiring up incorrectly so im goin to try it today
i found what signals the wires for it do and am connecting it up
like in the book but bypassing the abs ecu
see how it goes

this is what i know

when i first ran the crown speedo no1 sensor it has 20 pulses
thru my speedo then to the crown ecu the gbox went spastic
my speedo went to 140 kph due to it having 20 pulses so that made gbox change from 1st straight to hi
i fitted 4 pulse speed seonsor no1 that drives dash speedo is ok but maybe 10kmh out but it changes ok for now

so i guess could leave it that way it doesnt cause any probs


so this is what the auto ecu needs

either 4 pulses in to sp1 which comes from dash
i have 4 pulses goin into my dash then 4 pulses comes out of dash to ecus


or u need speed sensor no2 connected which might be a hassle if u have to run it thru the abs ecu

i will do some testing

i am runnin speed sensor no2 straight to ecu sp and have bypassed the abs computer

i will disconnect sp1 that comes from the dash so that the ecu is relying purely on the abs speed sensor no2 and see if it changes gears
if it does then it means the signal is good enough

i am runnin sp1 from dash speedo
and am tryin to sort out sp2

i will have oportunity to look at a front cut soon
but for now all i need is a crown abs ecu

The speedo being out is probably because of tyre changes, diff ratios etc. Did the dash have a 4pulse/rev input before?

I may have an ABS ecu around, although I probably binned it in one of my cleanups. I'll have a look we may get lucky.

Do you have an oscilloscope? I would like to get a hold of a running half cut so I measure everything.
Also wouldn't mind having a look at that crown manual.
Don't know when i'll be up in Sydney next.
If I come up soon i'll might try and organise a meeting with a running half cut so I can measure everything.

while everyone is being so forth coming with this awesome info, can someone answer this:

What signal does a MKIV supra W58 put out?? is it the 4 or 20 pulse/rev signal.

I need to know so when I pull the BMW diff out and put the supra one in my speedo will no longer work and i'll need to get creative with the speedo signals from the toyota GB to make the BMW speedo work.

i can prob get one not tomorrow but next sat
ill see how i go

i do want one
would like to work out how the damn auto ecu works

if i cure this error 61 then i will know everything is fine

and i can use it for future reference when wiring up customers cars
then i can justify the long hrs and price for wiring up the 1uz with crown auto ecu

Well Cambelt (Dave) and I had a play on his intact Crown halfcut today. The purple and white wire gave 1 pulse per tailshaft revolution. We couldn't muster any activity from the orange and black wire (the one from the ABS).

well not to sure if that is correct
my speedo which is a factory hilux electronic has a 4p on the b back

this means 4 pulses every rotatio of the speedo cable

this is what sp1 needs

make sure yr speedo reads accurate as it affects the auto changing

sp2 on the other hand is different it has alot of signals per
rev of the output shaft
this then gets sent to the abs ecu then to the auto ecu

i want to try and figure how to get rid of abs ecu

u dont need this sensor to get auto workin correctly
but u will have anoyyin o/d light comin up with code 61

I have the opposite problem.

As I've used the A341 trans from the half cut, the late crown has four channel ABS and therefore puts out 4p/rev from the transmission using a four tang chopper wheel instead of the 32 tooth abs chopper in the cressida. At present my ABS is disabled but I will be changing over sendors and choppers in the next week or so.

The only thing I have to confirm is that the ABS computer does actually divide the signal down to 4p/rev from 32p/rev. The factory manuals are conflicting in that the section covering ABS shows a violet/white wire from pin 15 going back to the engine ECU, but the full wiring diagram at the back shows it going to the speed sensor as an invisible fourth connection on the three pin plug to the sensor (both US and OZ manuals).

I'm really hoping Toyota just had a major cut and paste problem when they put this together.

Have you tried grinding off the extra teeth on the abs chopper to bring it down to four per rev? This would avoid having to muck around with the ABS ecu if you don't need it.

so u have measured the signal comin in to the crown abs computer

and the signal coming out

i tried fitting the sp1 to sp2 and the thing would not change gears


the manuals for cressida are funy in this section

the only way to understand it is to cut open the loom
i have afew times and slowly gettin hang of it but i have not time to figure it out properly to get abs to work on cressida after a 1j or 1u conversion

but if u can garantee that there is 32 pulses in to abs ecu and only 4 pulses out of the ecu then i can try afew things
but the pusles must be diff to sp1 signal because when i put sp1 signal to sp2(signal from abs ) then thing would not change gears

anyway its ok now without abs signal
but soon i fill do some testing for myself

Ok,

Here's what I think I know so far about the MX83

SP1 and SP2 are 0-5v pulses on non ABS vehicles

ABS equipped SP2 sensor is 32 pulses per rev ~2v-12v and then passed through the ABS ecu to the ECT ECU, I assume at 0-5v

I don't have access to a non ABS cressida (as both of ours are grandes) so I'm assuming the inputs of both SP1 and SP2 to the ECT ECU are 4p/rev at 0-5v. Can someone confirm this. I will have some better info over the weekend.

well i got some more info

my speedo reads accurately now

but if i floor it and hold it flat it kicks down and hit redline and stupid gbox wont change gears

so im goin to get a device to control the pulses that goto sp1

this way i can control what speed the ecu sees compared to what my speedo sees

this way i can bring the revs lower when changin gears
instead of changin at 6000 rpm

Well a little update.
1 pulse per revolution to the violet white wire is a good thing. Car shifts gear, kicks down and drives normally.

Thankyou Grant and Allan for the 5MGE auto bits.
