DTC P0500-31: Vehicle Speed Sensor "A" No Signal [10/2017 - ]: Procedure

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 14 other vehicles, including the 2024 Lexus IS 350, 2024 Lexus IS 300, 2023 Lexus IS 350, 2023 Lexus IS 300, and 2022 Lexus IS 350. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (VEHICLE SPEED) 
    1. Drive the vehicle and check whether the operation of the speedometer in the combination meter assembly is normal.

      HINT: 

      • 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.
    2. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    3. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
    4. Turn the Techstream on.
    5. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Transmission / Data List / Vehicle Speed.

      Powertrain > Transmission > Data List 

      Tester Display Measurement Item Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      Vehicle Speed Vehicle speed Min.: 0 km/h (0 mph)
      Max.: 255 km/h (158 mph)
      Actual vehicle speed
      • This is the current vehicle speed.
      • The vehicle speed is detected using the wheel speed sensors.
        • Vehicle speed data is delayed when it is displayed. Therefore, even if the vehicle speed listed in the freeze frame data is 0 km/h (0 mph), this does not always mean that the malfunction occurred when the vehicle was stopped.
