СИСТЕМА ECD, Diagnostic DTC:P0500

DTC Code DTC Name
P0500 Vehicle Speed Sensor "A"

DESCRIPTION

The wheel speed sensor monitors the wheel rotation speed and sends a signal to the skid control ECU.

The skid control ECU converts the wheel speed signal into a 4-pulse signal and transmits it to the ECM via the combination meter. The ECM determines the vehicle speed based on the frequency of the pulse signal.

Tech Tips

For vehicles with a cruise control system, detection does not start unless the following conditions are met.


  • Adjustable Speed Limiter (ASL) Main button status is ON.

  • Average time period between speed pulses is a non-zero value and frozen for a calibrated time.

  • Sensed vehicle speed is greater than a calibrated threshold.

  • Engine is running.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note


  • When replacing the ECM, the ECM needs registration and initialization.

  • Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

Tech Tips


  • When the ECM must be replaced, before replacing the ECM, perform the "Learning Values Save" function using the GTS. Then after installing the new ECM, perform all of the initialization/registrations for the "Learning Values Write" function by following the instructions shown on the GTS display.

  • Read freeze frame data using the GTS. 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, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK OPERATION OF SPEEDOMETER


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

      Tech Tips

      The vehicle speed sensor is operating normally if the speedometer reading is normal.

      OK
      The vehicle speed sensor is operating normally.

  2. READ VALUE USING GTS (VEHICLE SPEED)


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON and start the engine.

    3. Turn the GTS on.

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


      Powertrain > Engine and ECT > Data List
      Tester Display
      Vehicle Speed

    5. Drive the vehicle.

    6. Read the value displayed on the GTS.

      OK
      Vehicle speeds displayed on GTS and speedometer display are equal.

    1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    2. Move the shift lever to neutral.

    3. Jack up the vehicle.

    4. Check the voltage between the terminal of the combination meter and the body ground while a wheel is turned slowly.

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      G16-6 (+S) - Body ground Ignition switch ON Voltage generated intermittently

      Tech Tips

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