Gen6 Camry 09" check engine light on error P0500

Hi guy ive tried researching before posting an thread but i didnt have any luck i daw a similar thread but there wasnt any usefull information.

So heres my story.
Currently i havent been tweaking anything to my car after driving to go and hOme i left to go get somthing to eat and after driving for a few min out of nowhere the engine light,brake,and abs comes up. So i freak out a pull over to the nearest gas station and turn my engine off for 2 min and turn it back on and this time only the engine light come up. So i drove to autozone to get it scan and error p0500 comes up. Which means short circuit, vss and poor electricity somthing im not exact but is it serious? Like im freaking out right now.

DTC P0500 Vehicle Speed Sensor "A"
DTC DETECTION CONDITIOn;
While vehicle is being driven, no speed signal is sent to ECM
(1 trip detection logic)

TROUBLE AREA;
Vehicle speed sensor

Vehicle speed sensor signal circuit
Combination meter
ECM
Skid control ECU





MONITOR DESCRIPTION;
If there is no speed signal from the combination meter even though the ECM determines that the vehicle is being driven, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the speed signal circuit. The ECM then illuminates the MIL and sets the DTC.

Check all fuses for an open (including the 120 amp alternator fuse), but what you described might have been an intermittent condition.

Keep us posted.
