Default Speed Sensor

I'm getting error code P0500 on my 2001 Hyundai Sante Fe with AWD and 2.7 litre V6 engine. Where is the speed sensor located that is related to this error code?

With ABS, there should be a speed sensor on each wheel of the car. When a general error code like this comes up, there is frequently a second code that identifies the location. Check for frayed sensor wires, especially on the front. The tone wheels on the front are known to crack or fill up with mud or other gunk. The rear tone wheels are part of the hub casting.

Since there was only one error code that showed up, do I need to check the speed sensor on each wheel or is there one wheel that is more likely associated with this error code than the others?
