    Does the VSS have an o-ring?

    just a couple of questions......

    is the VSS supposed to have an o-ring? (see pic, click on link if pic is too small) The only reason why i ask this is because i was cleaning some gunk on it (where the arrow points) and now that i think about it.......was it just gunk or was it a deteriorated o-ring)

    will the VSS from a MT work in a AT? Are the plugs the same? I ask this because i have another VSS that i took from a manual, just want to be sure it'll work in my auto.......don't feel like doing any wiring........

    I don't think it has an o-ring. If it does, it is in a different place than here on the Majestic site.

    As for if it's the same between auto/manual, I don't know for sure but I'm pretty sure. I don't think you'd have to change plugs or anything, either. They all work the same. Find out, and post back so we'll know

      i think the diff between the auto and manuals is that the plugs are differnt, however they are just a differnt connector that is added on to the stock connector....at least this was for a cd5 accord.

      as for the oring i dont think so however there is a small pin like shaft that goes in there.
      What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.

      You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

          the plugs and sensor are interchangable, but the geared base that mounts to the transmission was different.

          and not sure on the Oring.

              I think it does have an o-ring because power steering fluid has to flow through it. Also, from the picture, it looks as if an o-ring would fit right in place there.

                yeah, it kinda looks like an o-ring is supposed to go there.....but i'm just not sure......when i cleaned it i couldn't tell if it was just some gunk build-up or if it was actually a deteriorated, old o-ring.......

                i wish somebody knew for sure and could let me know so i don't have to install the VSS twice......

                  just to verify for anybody out there......i took the old speed sensor off and i saw no o-ring, so i believe it's safe to say that it doesn't have an o-ring on the sensor (around the key part, even though it looks like one could be there).

                  also, for anybody wanting to know, this VSS i took from a junkyard came off of a '92 manual car......and worked on my '91 automatic.

                  Yay! My speedo works again!
