I get a P0500 code which is the speed switch.
Where is this so I can replace it? I had it replaced two years ago. Now it is gone again. My doorlocks stoped working. When they do work the switch works, but then it goes out again.

The sensor itself is most likely not at fault. This is a common issue on your vehicle. Their is a wiring connector on the rear axle housing that goes to the vehicle speed sensor. The wiring often gets damaged on the e-brake cable due to bad positioning. This wiring will need repaired and placed differently so that it does not happen again.

Its on the rear axle housing as stated before and you would need to disconnect and remove the old wiring and replace it with new wiring, keeping in mind to attach it to a different location, away from the cable.
