Foreword
The descriptions and service procedures contained in this manual are based on designs
and methods studies carried out up to August 2005.
The products are under continuous development. Vehicles and components produced
after the above date may therefore have different specifications and repair methods.
When this is believed to have a significant bearing on this manual, supplementary
service bulletins will be issued to cover the changes.
The new edition of this manual will update the changes.
In service procedures where the title incorporates an operation number, this is a

reference to an V.S.T. (Volvo Standard Times).
Service procedures which do not include an operation number in the title are for general
information and no reference is made to an V.S.T.
Each section of this manual contains specific safety information and warnings which
must be reviewed before performing any procedure. If a printed copy of a procedure is
made, be sure to also make a printed copy of the safety information and warnings that
relate to that procedure. The following levels of observations, cautions and warnings
are used in this Service Documentation:
Note: Indicates a procedure, practice, or condition that must be followed in order to have
the vehicle or component function in the manner intended.
Caution: Indicates an unsafe practice where damage to the product could occur.
Warning: Indicates an unsafe practice where personal injury or severe damage to the
product could occur.
Danger: Indicates an unsafe practice where serious personal injury or death could occur.

General
The Vehicle Speed Signal arrives at the VECU from one
of three sources, depending on vehicle / transmission
configuration:
• Eaton-type Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS)

• Automated Transmission without extra sensor
• Allison Transmission
In all cases, the origin of the Vehicle Speed Signal

is a VSS sensor in the output shaft (tailshaft) of the
transmission.
Component: A17, VECU; B68 speedometer sensor.

Tests Using PC Tool

The following tests are useful for closely examining the
component’s function:
• “Cruise control switch, test”
The test allows you to read the speed signal from the
VECU.
Determination of Vehicle Speed

Sensor Configuration
The appropriate check of the system will depend on the
configuration of the Vehicle Speed sensor and circuits.
Use the following information to determine which system
the vehicle has:
• Eaton-Type Vehicle Speed Sensor

Use this check whenever FMI 5 or 6 is present.
This type of Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) will be
found on the tailshaft of manual transmissions.
It may also be found on some automated
transmissions (Eaton Autoshift, Eaton Lightning)
when two VSS are present in the tailshaft - one
VSS will be wired directly to the Transmission
ECU, the other will be wired to the VECU
(circuits 550/551).
• Automated Transmission without Extra Sensor

If only one VSS is found on an automated
transmission (Eaton Autoshift, Eaton Lightning)
the VECU is receiving Outputshaft Speed
information from the Transmission ECU over
the J1939 datalink.
All Meritor / ZF FreedomLine transmissions fall
into this category.
Use this section if the vehicle is equipped with an
Allison MD or HD transmission.
23
Measurement at component
connector to VECU
Note: Faults in the wiring harness to the VECU
can damage the component. Therefore, a check of
the component should also be made if any of the
measurement values deviate.
For this type of VSS, 3 checks can be performed:

1 Prerequisites:
• Ignition key in OFF position.

• Measurement box inserted at VECU
(disconnected at VECU side).
• Vehicle Speed Sensor at transmission connected.
• Measure resistance, harness side of PB6 – PB20,
“looking toward” VSS.
•
Measuring points Expected value
PB6 - PB20 2.0 - 4.0 k
2 Prerequisites:

• Vehicle Speed Sensor at transmission
disconnected.
• Make sure PB6 and PB20 are not shorted to
ground, power, or each other.
•
PB6 - PB20 OL
PB6 - ground OL
PB20 - ground OL
3 Prerequisites:
• Ignition key in ON position.

• Measurement box inserted at VECU (connected
at VECU).
• Vehicle must be stationary.
• Measure voltage across PB6 – PB20.

PB6 - PB20 1.25 - 1.75 Vdc (average)
varying between approx. 1.0 and 2.0 V
24

1 If two Vehicle Speed Sensors (VSS) are present
in the transmission’s tailshaft and the PID 84
fault code set by the VECU is FMI 5 or 6, use
the troubleshooting for the Eaton-type Vehicle
Speed Sensor (above).
2 If only one VSS is present in the tailshaft (or if

none are visible, as is the case with the Meritor /
ZF FreedomLine), then the VECU is receiving its
information over the J1939 Control Data Link.
Another way to tell that the VECU is receiving the
information over the Data Link is by the FMI that
the VECU is using. For example, if the fault code
is PID 84 FMI 2, this indicates that the VECU is
expecting the data over the J1939 Control Data
Link but is not receiving it.
3 In these cases, troubleshoot any fault codes in the

transmission ECU first. If the trouble remains,
refer to troubleshooting information for the SAE
J1939 Control Data Link, group 37.
1 The Vehicle Speed information from Allison
Transmissions can be obtained one of two ways:
• A hardwire connection from the Allison ECU

(Black connector, pin 30, circuit A215) to
the VECU (PB6, circuit 550). This signal
is a square-wave reproduction of the VSS
located in the Allison’s tailshaft.
• Over the J1939 Control Data Link. (NOTE:

even if obtaining the information over the
Data Link, the hardwire connection may
still be in place.)
In either case, troubleshoot any fault codes in the
Allison transmission ECU first.
2 If the PID 84 fault code in the VECU is FMI 2, this

indicates that the VECU is configured to receive
the VSS information over the J1939 Control
Data Link. If the problem remains, refer to
troubleshooting information for the SAE J1939
Control Data Link, group 37.
3 If FMI 2 is not indicated, or there are no fault codes

present in the VECU but a speed-related problem
still exists, troubleshoot the hardwire connection
between the Allison Transmission ECU and the
VECU. Refer to Service Information, group 37.
25
Check of Component
Note: Faults in the component can be caused by faults
in the wiring harness of the control unit. Therefore, a
check of the wiring harness should also be made before
connecting a new component.
• Eaton-Type Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS)
For the Eaton-type VSS, one check can be performed

at the VSS:
Prerequisites:
• Vehicle Speed Sensor at transmission disconnected.
• Measure resistance of sensor using tool 9990151.
A-B 2.0 - 4.0 k
No relevant measurements; refer to the appropriate

service literature for the transmission manufacturer.

Verification
Using the PC tool, check that the fault has been corrected
(see “Tests Using PC Tool” page 23).
