Toyota Camry (XV70): Vehicle Speed Sensor "A" No Signal (P050031)
DESCRIPTION
The speed sensor detects the wheel speed and sends the appropriate signals to the skid control ECU. The skid control ECU converts these wheel speed signals into a pulse signal and outputs it to the ECM via the combination meter. The ECM determines the vehicle speed based on the frequency of this pulse signal.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM assumes that the vehicle is being driven when the transmission counter gear speed is 300 rpm or more. If there is no speed signal from the combination meter despite this condition being met, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the speed signal circuit, then illuminates the MIL and stores a DTC.
