Monitor Description

The ECM assumes that the vehicle is driven when the park/neutral position switch is OFF and it has been over 4 seconds since the actual vehicle speed was 9 km/h (6 mph) or more.

If there is no signal from the vehicle speed sensor with these conditions satisfied, the ECM concludes that there is a fault in the vehicle speed sensor. The ECM will turn on the MIL and a DTC is set.
