so i took my car to a shop to do an oil change since i was too lazy to do it and after i got the car back i noticed when i was driving to work that the MPH's werent working or my mile marker. everything else on the gauge cluster works except those two things. anyone have an idea on what it is???

 

HAHAHAHA....OMG that is my same problem now....after i got my oil changed a long time ago it happened....my miles and mph will work occasionally...idk if anyone knows let us know ASAP

 

im guessing its the Vehicle speed sensor but i wanna make sure

 

Vss

 

wow thats gotta suck!!

 

how much am i looking at? ($$$$)

 

where is the vss located???

 

Auto #12


Manual #8

 

VSS fault sets Code 17 on CEL. If you don't have a code, your IP wiring, or speedo/odo/trip circuit board likely has failed.

good luck

 

thanks yeah i got code 17

 

Check ebay for replacement VSS. Plenty of parts available. Easy DIY.

good luck

 

hey changed the vss. everything works but now the RPM's are going crazy. i checked the code and now i got code 65. would that be the problem??

 

btw i got the vss off a 4 gen accord not the 94-95's. dont know if its the same

 

RPM jumping is usually associated w/ faulty ignition parts; ignitor, coil, wires, or plugs or all of them. Start w plugs if you haven't done that in a while.

Code 65 indicates a fault (open or short) in the secondary O2 sensor heater circuit. This usually means the heater element is open (burn out), but can mean wiring or connector fault. I would first reset the ECU and see if code comes back immediately. If yes, a new O2 sensor is probably fix, but check wiring and connector for damage.

good luck

 

As long as you're a 2.2 it should be

 

k thanks. imma see if i fix the problem tommorow
