Hello, the vehicle speedometer is not functioning after scanning the vehicle,
It brought some codes, P0500 and the front speed sensor were not functioning when the vehicle was moving. The two sensors have been replaced but the issues still persisted.
Please could I get a wire diagram for this and what else could be done?
The codes are found on the image below.

The P0500 OBD-II Trouble Code in your 2010 Toyota Corolla stands for "Vehicle Speed Sensor Malfunction". Here is the sensor you should replace. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.

Good evening, sir,

The speedometer is now functioning after replacing the two-front sensor with another ones. I was a surprise to know that former new sensors were bad which made it difficult for me to notice. When I tested the continuity of the new sensors, the multimeter reads only in one direction, while it reads in both directions on the former new sensors.
