O/D Main Switch & O/D OFF Indictor Light Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The O/D main switch is a momentary type switch. When pressing the O/D OFF main switch, the O/D OFF
indicator light lights up and ECM prohibits shifting to O/D, and when pressing it again, the O/D OFF indicator
light goes off and ECM allows shifting to O/D. Turning the IG switch OFF will reset the O/D OFF indicator
light.

CIRCUIT INSPECTION
DTC P0500 Vehicle Speed Sensor Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The speed sensor for ABS detects the wheel speed and sends the appropriate signals to the ABS ECU.
The ECU converts these signals in to a 4-pulse signal and outputs it to the combination meter.
After this signal is converted into a more precise rectangular waveform by the waveform shaping circuit in-
side the combination meter, it is then transmitted to the ECM. The ECM determines the vehicle speed based
on the frequency of these pulse signals.
DTC No.DTC Detecting ConditionTrouble Area
P0500
Satisfying all of the following conditions, 2 sec. (Intake air tem-
perature: -10 °C or more) or 8 sec. (Intake air temperature:
less than -10 °C) elapsed.
(c) After 2 sec. (the engine coolant temperature: 20 °C or
more) or 30 sec. (the engine coolant temperature: less than
20 °C) with the park/neutral position switch set to P, N posi-
tion.
(d) No abnormality of the throttle position sensor is detected.
(e) After 0.5 sec. or more with the ignition switch turned ON.
(f) No vehicle speed is signal to ECM.
(g) The engine rpm is equal to the speed sensor rpm or more
when the throttle opening angle is as shown below.
1. The throttle opening angle is less than 13° and the engine
rpm is 2,350 or more.
2. The throttle opening angle is less than 21° and the engine
rpm is 2,680 or more.
3. The throttle opening angle is less than 30° and the engine
rpm is 2,835 or more.
4. The throttle opening angle is less than 30° and the engine
rpm is 3,145 or more.
