Hello.
Acura cl3.0 97 AT

my speedometer every now and then flickers, dropping to zero then back up to speed. sometimes this happens, sometimes it doesnt. sometimes it doesnt work at all. untill i come to a stand still, and start move again, then maybe it'll work or not. vary rare that it doesnt work.
I've done some reading and want to know if i would be able to change the sensor on the transmission. or where exactly it would be. DIY as opposed to getting it done in the shop.
thnx

 

get ur charging system checked out could possibly be ur alternator or battery problem. but if u look at my thread need help asap there is a link to show u were the sensor it at on our tranny

 

sounds more like vss.

 

by the charging system, alternator and battery, you mean the electrical system of the engine?where can i find your thread?

vss ... speed sensor.

 

found your thread, but no link.

 

vss= vehicle speed sensor
and he was referring to this link http://www.acuraautomotiveparts.org/...s=&view=normal

 

i tried removing my vss sensor this past weekend it was a bitch to get off there is one bolt that holds it in remove that and u should be good

 

When my alternator was failing/failed, I had the exact same problem - and our cars are notorious for alternator failures. You can check to make sure you're getting at least 13 volts out of it, if not you know it's on the way out.
