DIAGNOSIS
DESCRIPTION:
This bulletin explains the function of the Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) and Right Front Wheel Speed Sensor (RF-WSS) on current Hyundai models and
how they relate to Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC). It also helps diagnose conditions related to these sensors.
KEY information:
The same DTC, P0500 (Vehicle Speed Sensor Fault), can be set by the VSS or the RF-WSS, depending on the model.
The table listed in this TSB can be used to determine which sensor is pertinent to which model vehicle when working on a DTC for the vehicle speed
sensor.
VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR (VSS):
The VSS on current Hyundai vehicles is one of two types:
1.
Electrical sensor (either magnetic or Hall-type sensor) mounted directly on the transmission. This sensor is driven by a gear on the transaxles final
drive assembly. All current model vehicles use this type of sensor, except for the Accent.
