Help with my 2004 TL sensors/speedometer
Help with my 2004 TL sensors/speedometer
Hello!
I will try to summarize as best I can.
Trouble with APPS sensor turns out to be corroded battery cable. It was in horrible shape and had to replace the entire thing. APPS sensor stopped giving me problems.
Almost two weeks later speedometer stops working for approx. 2 weeks and suddenly starts working again. The check engine light was on and mechanic that replaced the batter cable said it was the two sensors in the wheels and the speedometer sensor?
When I park at work, in the garage on an incline, the APPS sensor gives me problems. I just turn the car off and back on and it doesn't do it again.
So my question...... what could be causing the issues with the APPS sensor and the speedometer not working?
That is my best explanation, tried not to be too girly but yes I am a girl and I am not a mechanic. I know some stuff about cars in general, but not much.
Your help is appreciated!

Can't speak to your speedo issue but the APP sensor has been known to go wonky on the TL. Many have replaced them and solved issues. Could be that yours is dying and had nothing to do with the bad cable.
