DTC P0500 Vehicle Speed Sensor "A"


DESCRIPTION

The vehicle speed sensor outputs 4 pulses for every revolution of the rotor shaft, which is rotated by the transmission output shaft via the driven gear. After this signal is converted into a more precise rectangular waveform by the waveform shaping circuit inside the combination meter, it is then transmitted to the ECM. The ECM determines the vehicle speed based on the frequency of this pulse signal.

DTC Detection Condition
Trouble Area
P0500
While the vehicle is being driven, no vehicle speed signal is input to the ECM.
(1 trip detection logic: manual transaxle models)
(2 trip detection logic: automatic transaxle models)
  1. Open or short in speed signal circuit
  2. Vehicle speed sensor
  3. Combination meter assembly
  4. ECM

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

Automatic Transaxle Models:
  1. The ECM assumes that the vehicle is being driven when the vehicle speed signal from the transmission (SP2) indicates a speed of 9 km/h (6 mph) or more.
    If there is no vehicle speed signal from the combination meter (SP1) when the vehicle is being driven, the ECM determines this to be a malfunction of the vehicle speed sensor. The ECM then illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC.
Manual Transaxle Models:
  1. The ECM assumes that the vehicle is being driven when the indicated engine speed is 2000 to 5000 rpm and the engine load calculated by the ECM is more than a certain level. If there is no signal from the vehicle speed sensor, despite these conditions being met, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the speed signal circuit. The ECM then illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC.

  1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
  2. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the intelligent tester on.
  3. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC operation).
  4. Turn the ignition switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
  5. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the intelligent tester on [A].
  6. Start the engine.
  7. Drive the vehicle at 24 km/h (15 mph) or more for a total of 30 seconds or more [B].
  8. Stop the vehicle.
  9. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / DTC [C].
  10. Read the pending DTCs.
    HINT:
    1. If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
    2. If a pending DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.
  11. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Utility / All Readiness.
  12. Input the DTC: P0500.
  13. Check the DTC judgment result.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:
Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
1.READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (VEHICLE SPEED)
  1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

  1. Turn the intelligent tester on.

  1. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / Vehicle Speed.

  1. Drive the vehicle.

  1. Read the value displayed on the intelligent tester.

    OK:
    Vehicle speeds displayed on intelligent tester and speedometer display are equal.

CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS (HILUX_TGN26 RM000000PDQ0YLX.html)

2.CHECK COMBINATION METER SYSTEM
  1. Inspect the circuits that send vehicle speed signals to this system in the meter system (HILUX_TGN26 RM000002UD709OX.html).

  1. During inspection for the meter section, if there is an instruction that indicates to go back to inspections for each system, proceed to the next step.
