Hello friends, I have problems with the VSS of my truck, when scanning it gives me code p0500. If you can help me identify that sensor to be able to check it, I would be very grateful.

It looks like the vehicle speed sensor is inside the transmission, you will need to remove the transmission pan which I have given instructions for in the diagrams below. You can see the VSS is positioned next to the shift solenoids with a wiring connector that must be removed before taking the sensor out. Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
