Please where is the location of vehicle speed sensor A on 2000 Sienna? I got a P0500 on scanning. Please help me with a diagram if possible.

Thanks

wrong, this is vehicle speed sensor and not a wheel speed sensor, moreover it is a P0 code which can be scanned with a low cost non professional scan tool, instead you should ask him to test the circuit and make sure that the it is good and no wiring problems are present.
Re: Please Help Me With The Location 'vehicle Speed Sensor A' On 2000 Sienna - P0500 by cocoduck: 10:46am On Mar 20, 2016
It is located on the gear box. Why not use Google images to search for it, I am using my phone to type so I can't do it for you.

I'm beginning to take this personal. It is easy to be an Internet mechanic



OP I maintain same stance, scan ABS, that car is NOT equipped with a speed sensor attached to the gearbox, I don't have to prove anything to any one because I have worked on several.

It might not be attached to the gearbox, but VSS is NOT a wheel speed sensor, this is a P0 code, okay?

www.obd-codes.com/p0500 please see for yourselves, is there any mention of Wheel speed sensors, this code is a generic code, well, I will not chastise GaZuz for saying he should do abs scan but it is not necessary, wheel speed sensor is not the same as VSS but they all work together, I hate throwing parts at cars, that is why I like to explain to you so that you know how everything are related. BTW the information gotten from the VSS is related to the driver via the speedometer, while the WSS is used by the ABS module or BCM or whatever the car is equipped with to control the ABS, TRAC, ESP or VSC, of course it needs the VSS also to know the vehicle' s speed. Stop throwing parts at cars, anyways there is a whole economy built on parts changing.
Re: Please Help Me With The Location 'vehicle Speed Sensor A' On 2000 Sienna - P0500 by GAZZUZZ(m): 3:29pm On Mar 20, 2016
Internet mechanic, I do not need a lecture on how the speed gets interpreted on the cluster of a siena 2000, this is not a camry 98, there is no single vss sensor on that car, and no one is asking the OP to buy any parts, I said SCAN ABS. The wheel speed sensor are responsible for cluster speed, and if the ABS module stops working or is not functional the vehicle speed info will not work., you just seem to want to pick holes in my posts, well now you have been noticed.

Please I want you to explain the term cluster speed, if what you mean is the speedometer on the instrument cluster then then that is then work of the VSS, WHICH CAN BE LOCATED EITHER ON THE GEARBOX OR THE DIFFERENTIAL, Wheel speed sensors are used to measure the speed of the wheels and the BCM uses it in conjunction with the VSS to determine if the car is skidding and getting out of control or the car is on a slippery surface ice road or in muddy pool to for example activate traction control. Once again this is a P0 code, a generic code, call me what ever you like, stop giving people bad information and you cannot diagnose a car from a distance, you need to be where the car is. Proudly an internet mechanic.

Go and read what I typed again and again, You said ABS ECU so it ABS is not part of the P0 codes, there is no P0*** code that can be from the ABS system fault, the OBD2code website I Linked the op to said the same thing. what I am saying is in tandem with alldata. He needs to test the Vehicle speed sensor not the wheel speed sensors, don't confuse the two terms they are not the same.

oh my God VSS is usually located on the gear box or on the differential, then the wheel speed sensors are located on the wheel hubs where the monitor the tone ring, and they are in some cars three in number or four in other cars, one for each front wheel, what are you talking about? okay do I go further? some are two wire sensors and produce AC and are usually found on older cars, then the three wire types which do not produce their own current but manipulates the current received from the ECU or BCM to produce a signal for the computer to use, ah ah. Name waoooo. The Op can do as you said, but stop giving people bad info. The obd2 webpage said he should test the circuit, to test the circuit go to YouTube and search for scanner danner and browse in his channel you will see how to test sensor circuits, sensors of any type, scanner danner is awesome and you know that.

he already has the code, what else do you need? torque pro is a good example of the tool he can use, in cases like these you don't actually need like versus pro or maxisys, this is a straight forward case.

As in the WSSs are or is the same as the VSS, what we are discussing about is the fault code P0500, the solution is straight forward it is either the VSS is no longer working or circuit is open or shorted, or that PCM is faulty, the VSS is on most cars on the gear box or in some cars on the differential, I also said that he should first of all test the circuit for an open or a short, the and replace the appropriate part.

the other way round bro, i'm watching you.....

You don't just jump at codes.... some times experience counts your knowledge does not exist. stick around this is a learning field. At least I have taught you 1 thing today, do not search for a vss sensor on the gearbox of a 2000 siena because you will not find one.

Then you do not know somthing or are not sure the smart thing to do is SHUT UP.

When you have made a glaring mistake and you have been caught instead of running round in circles confusing your self, SHUTING UP might just help.

Look at your last comment, advising the OP to test sensors when all he had to do was press scan on a portable device, now who is old sch me or you? Oga park well.

please I am on my knees, tell me what it takes to test a sensor, because as far as I know all that is needed is your multimeter to and a 200mA test light. even if he cannot, his technician can do it for him. I mean what does it take? the scan tool is not enough, what if the sensor is working but the signal is not reaching the Pcm, how will you find out using the scan tool? X-ray eyes?
On account of VSS, please I want the name of that OBDII car that doesn't have VSS, if then you a saying that I made a mistake of saying that on the car in question you will or will not find it on the gearbox, then please go and learn how to read because in my previous posts I sang it like a song that some cars have it on their gearbox while others have it on their differential, I even explained the two types of speed sensors, the two wire and three wire types.

I can do this all day, I'm on cartalk an average of every 10mins (when I'm not sleeping)

in the modern world for the highlighted use a scanner first, it isolates the problem and narrows down the problem area, after that you can bring your OLD SCH 200ma test light to ABS (who the bleep does that)

Re: Please Help Me With The Location 'vehicle Speed Sensor A' On 2000 Sienna - P0500 by GAZZUZZ(m): 8:32pm On Mar 20, 2016
this is how it is done.

Your original assumption was the car used the first pic so based on your inexperience you were quick to fault my diagnosis.


Unfortunately toyota decided to pic the speed information from the wheels, via the abs unit.

If you have a better diagnosis other than sticking wires and uncliping 16year old abs sockets to stick a bulb to test, then you are so old SCH.
