98 Ford Explorer XLT AWD 5.0 speedometer

[B Baker]

I just purchased this vehicle from a Dealer. He said the Speedometer Just went out on him the night before while he was driving. The Guy said that he Replaced 2 Speed Sensors and said that it was the cluster. I You Tubed it and seen about the gear to the little motor in the back of the cluster. I changed it and speedometer still not working. Any help would be appreciated.

Probably best to get the volt meter out and trace it back that way. Sorry to be a bit snide, but did you even search the forums at all? These might be usefull:

I *think* your speed sensor is the ABS sensor in the rear diff on the tone ring. There should only be 1, not 2. You should be able to test that sensor (either that it's sending V or check the resistance, you'll have to get the values from the forums). Check for voltage at the dash. If no voltage at the dash, then continuity test between the circuit. You can download the wiring diagrams on http://search.ebscohost.com/. Search the forums for the login information. Hope that helps.
