?1.
Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.
?2.
Clear the DTC with the HDS.
Clear DTC
?3.
Raise the vehicle on a lift. Make sure it is securely supported, and allow the front wheels to rotate freely.
?6.
Test-drive the vehicle in D position/mode, and the engine speed at 1,000 rpm or higher, then release the accelerator without pressing it again, for at least 4 seconds. Slow down and stop the wheels.
?7.
Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.

Freeze Frame
P0502 CVT Speed Sensor Circuit Open/Short
Is DTC P0502 indicated?
The failure is duplicated. Go to step 2.
Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. If the freeze data/on-board snapshot of this DTC is recorded, try to reproduce the failure under the same conditions with the freeze data/on-board snapshot.?
2.
Determine possible failure area (VCC2 line, others):
