DTC P0500 Vehicle Speed Sensor "A"

Description

The speed sensor detects the wheel speed and sends the appropriate signals to the skid control ECU. The skid control ECU converts these wheel speed signals into a 4-pulse signal and outputs it to the ECM via the combination meter. The ECM determines the vehicle speed based on the frequency of these pulse signals.

DTC Code	DTC Detection Condition	Trouble Area
P0500	While the vehicle is being driven, no vehicle speed sensor signal is transmitted to the ECM (2 trip detection logic).	Open or short in speed signal circuit Combination meter ECM

Monitor description

1. The ECM assumes that the vehicle is being driven when the indicated vehicle speed is more than 9 km/h (5.6 mph). If there is no speed signal from the combination meter 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.

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.CHECK OPERATION OF SPEEDOMETER

1. Drive the vehicle and check whether the operation of the speedometer in the combination meter is normal.

   HINT:

   1. The vehicle speed sensor is operating normally if the speedometer reading is normal.
   2. If the speedometer does not operate, check it by following the procedure described in Speedometer Malfunction .

NG	GO TO MALFUNCTION IN SPEEDOMETER

OK

2.READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (VEHICLE SPD)

1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

3. Turn the tester on.

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

5. Drive the vehicle.

6. Read the value displayed on the tester.

   OK:

   Vehicle speeds displayed on tester and speedometer display are equal.

NG	Go to step 3

OK
CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS

3.CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER - ECM)

1. Disconnect the E7 combination meter connector.

2. Disconnect the A38 ECM connector.

3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

   Standard Resistance:

   Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
   E7-4 (+S) - A38-13 (SPD)	Always	Below 1 ?
   E7-4 (+S) or A38-13 (SPD) - Body ground	Always	10 k? or higher

NG	REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

OK

4.CHECK COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY (+S VOLTAGE)

1. Disconnect the E7 combination meter connector.

2. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

   Standard Voltage:

   Tester Connection	Switch Condition	Specified Condition
   E7-4 (+S) - Body ground	Engine switch on (IG)	4.5 to 5.5 V

NG	REPLACE ECM

OK

5.CHECK COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY (SPD SIGNAL OUTPUT WAVEFORM)

1. Move the shift lever to N.

2. Jack up the vehicle.

3. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

   Standard Voltage:

   Tester Connection	Switch Condition	Specified Condition
   E7-4 (+S) - Body ground	Engine switch on (IG) Wheel turned slowly	Voltage generated intermittently

   HINT:

   The output voltage should fluctuate up and down, similarly to the diagram, when the wheel is turned slowly.

NG	CHECK COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY (SPD SIGNAL INPUT WAVEFORM)

OK

6.CHECK COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY (SPD SIGNAL INPUT WAVEFORM)

1. Move the shift lever to N.

2. Jack up the vehicle.

3. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

   Standard Voltage:

   Tester Connection	Switch Condition	Specified Condition
   E7-3 (SI) - Body ground	Engine switch on (IG) Wheel turned slowly	Voltage generated intermittently

   HINT:

   The output voltage should fluctuate up and down, similarly to the diagram, when the wheel is turned slowly.

NG	Go to step 7

OK
REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY

7.CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER - SKID CONTROL ECU)

1. Disconnect the combination meter connector.

2. Disconnect the skid control ECU connector.

3. Measure the resistance according the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance (Check for Open):

 

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
E7-5 (SI) - A24-12 (SP1)	Always	Below 1 ?

Standard Resistance (Check for Short):

 

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
E7-5 (SI) or A24-12 (SP1) - Body ground	Always	10 k? or higher

NG	REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

OK
REPLACE MASTER CYLINDER SOLENOID
