I turned the key to my 2001 dodge ram 3500 3 times and it gave me these codes what do these mean? P 0500, P1693
A code P0500 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:
1.The Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) is not reading (functioning) properly
2.There is a broken/frayed wire leading to the vehicle speed sensor
3.The vehicle's PCM is not correctly configured for the actual tire size on the vehicle
The simplest thing to do is to reset the code and see if it comes back. Next, check all wiring and connectors that lead to the speed sensor. The location of the sensor depends on your vehicle. The sensor could be on the rear axle, transmission, or perhaps the wheel hub (brake) assembly. If the wiring and connectors are OK, then check the voltage at the speed sensor.
P1693 (M) DTC Detected in PCM/ECM or DTC
Detected in ECM
A 9Companion DTC9 was set in both the ECM and PCM which is related to the above DTC code.
