Truck is throwing a p0500 code and is in limp mode. Doesn't want to drive on 35 MPH, brake, ABS, slip and check engine light is on as well as the 4x4 light and will not go into 4 wheel drive. I can't find the location of the VSS to change the sensor. Please help.

Good morning,

I attached the possibilities for you to view. The revolution sensor is the most common failure for this issue.

The sensor is inside the valve body.

I attached the procedure for accessing it as well as a flow chart for you to follow.

Let me know if you have any other questions.
