DTC P0500: Vehicle Speed Sensor Malfunction [08/2015 - 08/2019]: Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2019 Toyota 4Runner, 2018 Toyota 4Runner, 2017 Toyota 4Runner, and 2016 Toyota 4Runner. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
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 pulse signal and outputs it to the ECM via the combination meter. The ECM determines the vehicle speed based on the frequency of this pulse signal.
