No worries and thanks for your help. Great tip for lubing the sides.

Was not able to push the vertical sensor in manually, but got it to lay flush by tightening the bolt a little at a time. Angled sensor was much easier, and was able to push it in manually.

Thanks again !

permisi, saya punya lexus es 300, baru saja mengalami lampu indikator mesin menyala.
dan saya dapati kode DTC P0500, itu sudah saya coba hapus DTC dan coba tes dan muncul kembali DTC tersebut, apakah mungkin masalah itu sama dengan yang di atas atau berbeda ?

jadi mohon bantuanya.

excuse me, I have a lexus es 300, recently suffered engine indicator light illuminated.
and I find DTC code P0500, I have tried to delete it and try the test DTC and the DTC reappears, is it possible that the problem was the same as above or different?

so please its support.

I replaced the counter gear old spd sensor with new spd (from sewell lexus) few days before. I drove the truck today and feel like very smooth shifting and my RX get back its young life. Here is the pics of IJ1 connector (behind the right side of glove box. Three connectors together and the top white one). The last pic is the ECU configs according to 2000 RX 300 AWD.
I have similar issues with mine, 00 rx300 awd, cel with p0500 replaced both vss sensors still cel on with same code. I checked the wires but they all seem fine, can you give some pointers what else could be wrong ? TIA

Did you do any works by the ECU that seats under the globe box to the lower right side? Mine wire was not connected properly by the ecu connector plug. Here is the ECU picture. speed sensor with ECM E6-pin # 22 (violet & white color wire).
Looks like wiring problem. How the car driving now? Check the voltage of both sensors.

I have a 1999 RX300 AWD. When I had a P0500 I posted this thread. Hope it helps.
