Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) On-Vehicle Inspection
1. Hoist vehicle.
2. Release parking brake lever, set transmission in neutral and transfer in 2H".
3. Remove ECM (PCM) cover.
4. Connector voltmeter between VSS terminal "C51-3-1" of ECM (PCM) connector and body ground.
5. Turn ignition switch ON and turn rear right tire slowly with rear left tire locked.
Voltmeter should indicate deflection between 0 - 1 V and 8 - 14 V a few times while tire (1) is turned one revolution.
If check result is not satisfactory, proceed to "DTC P0500: Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) Malfunction:".
