Thanks for that information, SoHK. Although I already replaced the sensor in the rear axle, I am not sure if the new sensor is really working now correctly. If have heard of a case where there was too much space between the sensor and the gear inside of the differential producing the signal...

Hey guys, my speedometer is not working and OBD gives me an error code, something about the speed sensor not working. I have already replaced the speed sensor on the rear axle but that didnt fix the problem. Someone told me about another speed sensor thats supposed to be somewhere on the...

Sorry, didnt mean to question you. I thought I had understood from you that the signal from the sensor first goes to the PCM and then to the 4WABS, thats why I was surprised to find it the other way around, which is what I wanted to get confirmed, thats all.

I found a wiring diagram on ebscohost.com and as far as I am understanding this correctly it says that the signal from the sensor goes first directly to the 4WABS and from the 4WABS to the instrument cluster and to the PCM. Can anyone confirm this? What I am still not getting is that I am...

Alright, so the speed signal goes from the VSS in the rear axle differential to the 4WABS, then to the PCM and then to the instrument cluster. And since I am getting a speed reading from OBD, the signal seems to go to the PCM alright. But if that is the case, how can the PCM be the source of the...

Sounds good, I will check the cruise control first thing in the morning. BTW, the OBD error code I am getting is P0500. So are you saying that getting the OBD error code and the odometer/speedometer not working are two separate issues? And what exactly do you mean by 4WABS? The speed sensor I...

Thanks for the quick replies. 2000StreetRod: Neither the speedometer (the speed needle) nor the odometer (mileage counter) work. Sorry, I wasnt clear enough about that. Does the OBD error code come from the PCM? The OBD information I was getting with the Scangauge come from the PCM, right?

Hi guys, I desperately need your help with my Saleen XP8 :) I have been having trouble with my odometer for some time now. More specifically, it stopped working and is not showing any movement any more. I also started getting an OBD error code at that time regarding the speed sensor (not...

Thanks for the warm welcome :) Actually, I had been a member for quite some time, but when I tried to log in, my email wasnt recognized.... oh well. Anyways, thanks for the hint on the worm gear. Now if you could explain what the heck it is.. :) Do I need to remove the printed circuit to get...

Hi all, my speedo stopped working. I have replaced the VSS on the rear differential, but that did not fix it. I am currently trying to diagnose the cause by following these instructions: http://www.2carpros.com/questions/1997-ford-explorer-1997-ford-explorer-instrument-cluster I am...
