Speeometer Issues

Both the Speedometer and Odometer quit.

I replaced the VSS.... still dead as a hammer. Any Ideas???

I am looking into possibly being the SpeedCal but I did not think that they had a fuse on the box or not.

and before someone comments on search features, that is what I have been doing for the last week.

Well I got the problem resolved. 3 friggin weeks of troubleshooting
checked every fuse in the car......... all good
checked voltage on VSS / Speedcal....... both good.
not convinced, replaced VSS.............. no change.
disconnected Speedcal...................... no change.
cussed, kicked tools all over garage..... wife shakes head and mumbles idiot.


At this point I was going to check wires with my meter. so I disconnected the battery and it was disconnected for about 20 mins. Well before I could check the wires, I had to move the car. well the speedo works now.

I should have know since I am a computer guy, when in doubt reboot. I guess the ECU just reset itself and started working... I don't friggin care ass long as I don't have to spend anymore time or money on the issue.

Did your trip meter quit too? My speedo, odo., and trip just stopped working last Sunday

Thats exactly what mine was doing.

The best we can figure out, the has been sitting in the garage for a while. I start it and drive it around about once a month when it is stored. Well I did not get to do that much this winter and I know the battery died. So I think that the 2 are related. Works for me..
