Thank you so much for showing all of this. It’s very helpful for first time DIY’ers. For future soldering, just hold the soldering iron against the wires you’re joining for 3-4sec to make em hot, then press the solder against where the iron meets the wires and it will melt against the iron and wick right into the hot wire in a perfect wrapper instead of hot globs sitting on cold wire
Hi. I am struggling with the same problem. I need the exact same connector clip you show here in your video. I can’t find it anywhere. Can you please tell me where you bought yours? This video has been extremely helpful. Thank you so much for sharing.
I’m sorry I can’t remember the website that I ordered it from....I do remember I searched a lot of sites before I found the matching connector....Sorry ... If I have the time later, I’ll try looking at my statements from 2 years ago to see if I can find the site.....Good luck!
@@maddid2056 Sorry, I checked but I can only look back 1 year on my statement 😡..... If you take a picture of the connector, show it to an auto supply store. They should be able to match it....Good luck!!
i have an issue with my speedometer not working (i got the same p0500 code on a code reader), and i am blowing gauge fuses. were you also blowing fuses?
Being that the sensor wasn’t technically “plugged in” so to say, was it causing any bogging while idle? I have a speed sensor code, but even when transmission is in park it still bogs very badly. I even replaced the fuel pump cause I thought maybe that was the reason
Hello was that connector for one of the front wheel abs sensors? I'm struggling to solve an issue with a 2001 7.3. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
2007 Toyota Corolla s have the same code P0500. Vehicle speed transmission sensor.. I replaced it . The output one and it's still doing the same thing. Rev high like it's going in neutral when driving . What can I do ? If anyone know please let me know .. my speedometer still works
I've seen a video where cleaning the ABS sensor at each wheel resolved the problem on a Toyota Solara. It may be worth a shot. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xh2QGRZMqlk.html I've also seen a video where it was problem in the cluster (odometer housing where there was no signal and needed a repair or replacement on a Tacoma)
@@friedice6535 I have a 2006 Toyota Corolla with the same issue. I've disconnected the speed sensor and the issue was fixed. The speedometer works well.
what if you get a p0500 but your speedo and trip meter all works? That's what I have. Even the lcd digital speedo shows the speed besides the analogue one. cheers
oo0Spyder0oo .... if you have a scanner (if not, you can go to AutoZone and they'll do it for free) try clearing the code to see if it comes back on. If does, check the VSS wiring. A wire could be loose and not making the proper connection to the VSS. Good luck & thanks for watching!
@@beachtroll8344 Yes I have a scanner and that's what showed me the p0500 code. I just thought it wouldn't show the speedo correctly but it seems to work. I reset it once and after a few k's it's come back on, the engine warning symbol blocks the lcd readout. Also my cruise control won't activate, even though it says it's on. I suspect there's a link there as well. I'll see if the wiring is loose or something but I don't get how it relates to the cruise control. Cheers
Hi there, I'm getting the P0500 code, The odometer goes blank but otherwise, no issues driving, idling, etc. Nothing seems wrong with it at all. Any advice?
@@beachtroll8344 I have a 98 Toyota Tercel but can't find the speed sensor location on it and there doesn't seem to be a Haynes or Chilton manual for that year
@@beachtroll8344 If you got Rosin core solder and get an iron that gets hotter you will have better success. I’m not here to bash, but with the right tools, the job is easier. Soldering isn’t hard, set the iron on the bottom of the wire and with Rosin core solder (thin solder), touch the solder to the edge of the soldering iron and the wire… when the solder melts it will apply flux to the wire and as the wire heats up you will be able to put the solder directly on the wire and not the iron, go until the connection is full. It will flow through the wires making a great connection! You’re on the right path, but wrong solder and to weak of an iron. I run my variable iron at 42c x10 (420 degrees C), which is its max.
