VSS Question...

    VSS Question...

    So I have the typical VSS problems... odometer, speedometer and cruise control doesn't work but everything else works. I ordered a new Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) and was ready to intall it.

    Before I took out the old one I noticed one of the wires going to the sensor was pretty much cut off. No wonder the thing doesn't work. So I unplugged the old VSS, and never installed the new one because I had to leave. Anyways, since being unplugged, the speedometer comes on and the needle bounces around randomly while I'm driving. When I press the brakes it will go back to zero, and then I let go of the brakes (may still be stopped tho) and it will go back up. The VSS isn't even plugged in!?!

    My question is: Do I have a bad ground from the speedometer or something? And should I even bother installing the new one?

      It acted the same before and after I unplugged it. I am confused as to why the speedometer goes up and down randomly while the VSS isn't even pugged in... Thanks for the reply.

            dont even try to figure it out... you have cut/shorted wiring and a disconnected VSS... get it all cleaned, re-spliced, and connected properly... if youre still having weird jumping tach problems, THEN worry about it.

              Thanks for the suggestions guys. Next chance I get, I'll try to clean up the wiring and install the new VSS. If I still have problems I will update this thread, if not .

                im having the exact same problem, but my vss is still plugged in...
                when i brake, it goes all the way down and then as soon as i let go it goes back up, then it goes all bouncy on me...
                should i only replace the electrical sensor , or should i replace the whole gear thing?

                  I haven't had the chance to install the sensor yet. When I do I'll let you know if it solved it Unless of course yours needs to be fixed asap.
