DTC P0503 Vehicle Speed Sensor ºAº Intermittent/
Erratic/High
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The No.1 vehicle speed sensor outputs a 4±pulse signal for every revolution of the rotor shaft, which is ro-
tated by the transmission output shaft via the driven gear. After this signal is converted into a more precise
rectangular waveform by the waveform shaping circuit inside the combination meter, it is then transmitted
to the ECM. The ECM determines the vehicle speed based on the frequency of these pulse signals.

P0503DI±11Intermittent problem in the ve-
hicle speed sensor circuitECM
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM assumes that the vehicle is driven when the park/neutral position switch is OFF and it has been
over 4 sec. since the actual vehicle speed was 9 km/h (6 mph) or more.
If there is no signal from the vehicle speed sensor when these conditions are satisfied, the ECM concludes
that there is a fault in the vehicle speed sensor. The ECM will turn on the MIL and a DTC is set.

DTC P0504 Brake Switch ºAº/ºBº Correlation
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
In addition to turning on the stop lamps, the stop lamp switch signals are used for a variety of engine, trans-
mission, and suspension functions as well as being an input for diagnostic checks. It is important that the
switch operates properly, therefore this switch is designed with two complementary signal outputs: STP and
ST1±. The ECM analyzes these signal outputs to detect malfunctions in the stop lamp switch.

DTC P0617 Starter Relay Circuit High
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
While the engine is being cranked, the battery positive voltage is applied to terminal STA of the ECM.
If the vehicle is being driven and the ECM detects the starter control signal (STA), the ECM concludes that
the starter control circuit is malfunctioning. The ECM will turn on the MIL and a DTC is set.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
Read freeze frame data using the hand±held tester. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when
a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was
running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air±fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other
data from the time when a malfunction occurred.
1 Connect hand±held tester, and check STA signal.
PREPARATION:
(a) Connect the hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON, and push the hand±held tester main switch ON.
(c) When using hand±held tester, enter the following menu: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA
LIST / ALL / STARTER SIG.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
The diagnostic information output from the AID can be confirmed by connecting an oscilloscope to the diag-
nostic information terminal of the AID. It narrows a trouble area search to read the waveform on the oscillo-
scope when performing the AI system intrusive operation function provided in the SYSTEM CHECK.
(a) Start the engine and warm it up.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
(c) Connect a hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(d) Connect an oscilloscope probe to the AIDI terminal of the
ECM.
(e) Start the engine and turn the tester ON.
(f) On the tester, select the following menu items:
DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / SYSTEM CHECK /
