I replaced the engine wire harness on my car listed above SV and keep getting a P0500 error code vehicle speed sensor/circuit. Replaced the 3 speed sensors on transmission and still code keeps popping up & my speedometer not functioning at all. Looking for a diagram of egi wire harness to make sure I didn't miss something?

Here are the wiring diagrams for the VSS sensor which is in the transmission wiring.

The P0500 error code for a 2017 Nissan Altima refers to a Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) malfunction. (output shaft sensor)
