Why is my 02 camry codes doing this

Asked by Anita Nov 28, 2023 at 09:41 PM about the 2002 Toyota Camry LE

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My o2 camry is throwing codes p0500  
p1725 p1730. While driving the
speedometer will drop to 0 and the rpms
will rev to between 3,00/4,000. It feels
like the transmission is going into
neutral. The ATF levels are good. I have
replaced the input and output speed
sensors and the 02 sensor. I don't know
what else to change except I have a
vacuum switching valve that needs to be
replaced. Can you give me any clues as
to what is going on

P0500 is a VSS code so that would explain speedometer, the P1725 is a input turbine speed sensor code so the computer can determine shift points, the P1730 code is also a transmission code for the counter gear sensor to compare it's speed with the direct clutch speed. I would recommend that a good transmission shop check it out as you could have sensor wiring issues or an transmission internal slipping problems and might need transmission overhaul.

I had the same issues with my 98 Camry, Did not drive it for a few weeks, afraid I would get stuck in traffic, or destroy the transmission. Took me weeks to find the fix, this info MIGHT be your issue, hope this helps, watch BOTH you-tube videos for the saving info. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcVhAsNL6mo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uYo1dfHK_s
