| DTC Code | DTC Name |
|---|---|
| P050031 | Vehicle Speed Sensor "A" No Signal |
DESCRIPTION
The speed sensors detect the wheel speed and send 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 No. | Detection Item | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area | MIL | Memory | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| P050031 | Vehicle Speed Sensor "A" No Signal | All conditions are met for 5 seconds or more (1-trip detection logic):
|
|
Comes on | DTC stored | SAE: P0500 |
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
If there is no speed signal from the combination meter assembly even though the ECM determines that the vehicle is being driven, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the speed signal circuit. The ECM then illuminates the MIL and stores this DTC.
CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN
Tech Tips
After repair has been completed, clear the DTC and then check that the vehicle has returned to normal by performing the following All Readiness check procedure.
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the GTS on.
Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
Turn the engine switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the GTS on.
Perform the D Position Shift Test inspection in Road Test.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Transmission / Utility / All Readiness.
Input the DTC: P050031.
Check the DTC judgment result.
| GTS Display | Description |
|---|---|
| NORMAL |
|
| ABNORMAL |
|
| INCOMPLETE |
|
| N/A |
|
Tech Tips
If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.
If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
If the judgment result shows INCOMPLETE or N/A, perform the Confirmation Driving Pattern and check the DTC judgment result again.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Note
Perform registration and/or initialization when parts related to the automatic transmission are replaced.
PROCEDURE
READ VALUE USING GTS (VEHICLE SPEED)
Drive the vehicle and check whether the operation of the speedometer in the combination meter assembly is normal.
Tech Tips
The vehicle speed sensor is operating normally if the speedometer reading is normal.
If the speedometer does not operate, check it by following the procedure described for a speedometer malfunction.
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Transmission / Data List / Vehicle Speed.
| Tester Display |
|---|
| Vehicle Speed |
Drive the vehicle.
Read the value displayed on the GTS.
Tech Tips
If the Data List updates slowly, perform measurement after selecting only the "Vehicle Speed" item.
| OK |
|---|
| Vehicle speeds displayed on the GTS and speedometer display are equal. |
