I ve a code P0500 on my toyota camry 2004. What does it mean.

P0500 OBD II Trouble Code P0770 Toyota Shift Solenoid Malfunction P0773 Toyota Shift Solenoid Electrical Malfunction

Check all linkage and adjustment to insure you are really getting into reverse. Also make sure to check fluid level with trans fully warmed up and engine running and trans in PARK. Low fluid can cause loss or reverse only. If this does not help, trans shop can pill pan and check for bad solenoid or other damage.

Perhaps this will help you find your problem:

The P0500 code is very common on the Toyota Tacoma, Toyota Yaris, Toyota Camry, Toyota Tundra, Toyota RAV-4. Before replacing the sensor you should try cleaning the sensor gear and erasing the code. If the light comes back you may have to replace the sensor.

i have a toyota camry 2002 xle 2.4l, and ive a trouble code p0500 vehicle speed sensor 1. i'm having problem locating this speed sensor and my speedo doesnt work. can someone place assist with images or pictures of where the speed sensor is or video of how to fix this problem, i will really appeciate it.

Vss. Speed sensor. For speedo in transmission end of cablw
screws into it?

for the p0500, the solution:
The simplest thing to do is to reset the code and see if it comes back.
i know this tool is helpful for your car.
Next, check all wiring and connectors that lead to the speed sensor. The location of the sensor depends on your vehicle. The sensor could be on the rear axle, transmission, or perhaps the wheel hub (brake) assembly.
If the wiring and connectors are OK, then check the voltage at the speed sensor. Again, the exact procedure wil depend on your make and model of vehicle.
If everything looks OK, replace the sensor.

THAT IS NO WARRANTY GENERALLY DUE TO THE AGED OF THE CAR , OFTEN ITS AN ABS SENSOR THAT GONE BAD

is a air fuell sensor code.. located just before catlitic convertor. can get it at a part store but still will need to have someone with a scanner clear code

They are not the sensors you want. The car uses the abs wheel sensors for vehicle speed. Your problem lies in the abs system , possibly the left front sensor, abs ecu or speedo cluster, Clear the code and see if it stay out otherwise you'll need to go to a trusted technician. .
