Trouble Code (DTC)

List System

6E-160 Engine Control System (4JH1)

DTC P0500 (Symptom Code B) (Flash Code 24)

Circuit Description
The vehicle speed sensor (VSS) is used by the engine
control module (ECM) and speedometer, which
generates a speed signal from the transmission output
shaft. The VSS has the following circuits.

•  Ignition voltage feed circuit
•  VSS signal circuit
•  VSS low reference circuit

The VSS uses a hall effect element. It interacts with the
magnetic field created by the rotating magnet and
outputs square wave pulse signal. The 12 volts
operating supply from the Meter fuse (except 2WD with
A/T) or Back Up fuse (2WD with A/T). The ECM
calculates the vehicle speed by the VSS. If the vehicle
is 2WD with automatic transmission, VSS signals are
sent from the transmission control module (TCM). If the
ECM detects VSS signals are not generated, this DTC
will set.
Condition for Running the DTC

•  The ignition switch is ON.
•  The engine speed is higher than 3600 RPM.
•  The fuel injection quantity is more than 41 mg/strk.

Condition for Setting the DTC

• The ECM detects that the vehicle speed is lower

than 1.5 km/h (1 MPH) for 60 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

• The ECM illuminates the malfunction indicator

lamp (MIL) when the diagnostic runs and fails.

Condition for Clearing the MIL/DTC

• The ECM turns OFF the MIL when the diagnostic

runs and does not fail.

• A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive driving

cycles without a fault. Or clear with the scan tool.

Diagnostic Aids

• Electrical or magnetic interference may affect

intermittent condition.

• If an intermittent condition is suspected, refer to

Intermittent Conditions in this section.
