The comment about symptoms of it with a jeep particularly helped. I have a Dodge Durango I’m working on and have been experiencing the exact symptoms. Glad to have finally found someone capable of relating and explaining.
I was having shifting issues with my 04 durango was about to buy a shift solenoid pack $349. Til I saw this video I replaced my speed input/output sensors, and behold it shifts smoothly you don't even feel it shifting. THANK YOU SO MUCH for posting this video. 😀
Oh wow, I really hope this is it because I’ve been playing the guessing game on my 2005 Nissan Marano that I just recently bought from a young lady. Thanks again for taking the time out to give any advice is greatly appreciate it. 💛
@@VarnHomestead hello I replace the speed sensor and everything was good until one day my speed only reach 60 then decrease. Til it won't go. Won't go in drive or reverse. RPM rams up but the car doesn't move. Could it be a bad sensor I received?
I just got my car in a week ago. My 1996 subaru legacy. Wouldn't go faster than 50mph, Rpms would stay steady for about 10mins of running then drop shut off the vehicle and display an engine light and AT oil temp light. Having that replaced has fixed all issues. Typed in my symptoms to google in a million different ways couldnt figure it out, the shop i took it to figured it out in less than an 3hrs after i had it towed there. Runs great now. Wish i would've seen this vid sooner!
My Jeep is having some of those issues. The hard shift and the delayed shift where it revs higher before shifting. Changing both speed sensors and the pressure sensor today. Then drive it slowly around the block a few times to let the TCM start getting the correct info again. Then drive it carefully for a while to let the whole system relearn everything.
@@luismanuelcruzcruz1172 I tried replacing the sensors but ran into an issue that now I have to take my Jeep to a shop to get them switched out. I'll update when that gets done.
Have a 2000 grand Cherokee limited with the 4.7 l power tech and one of my codes is the speed output sensor. All issues you listed she has and it also dips so low in revs it will stall or lose it's gear placement while driving as if it doesn't know how fast it's going and what gear to be in. Hopefully the shop doesn't ask for an insane amount to fix this. Thanks for the info!
2003 F250 SD all the above except no speedometer issues, plus loss of power. Tried to back up on a very slight incline yesterday and it just kinda sit there. Engine revved up but she moved like an old grandma!
hi have 2005 pilot all the lights came on including Green D shift hard to 1st gear wont go past third had it scanned by my mechanic po717 sent me to tranny shop so i had my son replace the speed sensor to see if that takes care of it still doing it. after disconnecting battery will drive normal for like 1/4 mile than all the lights come back on. think its a harness issue? where does that harness go to from the speed sensor? please advise
Hi mate I have a 2006 santa fe that will reverse but not move when put in drive. I can feel it go into gear when put in reverse but nothing when its put into drive. Any idea what the problem is?
I got a question my car is reving high and won't engage but when it warms up it revs high but will engage 1st and work fine but at every stop it revs high and slowly takes off and then shifts fine and I just changed the filter and fluid and didn't see any metal shavings what do you think could cause this I was told shift solenoid or input and output speed sensors it's a 2011 Ford crown Victoria police interceptor
I have a 2002 Toyota celica 1.8 liter 4 cylinder engine with a automatic transmission and the gear indicator light showing what gear the car is in quit working and the speedometer needle quit working as well what can the problem be
On a dodge charger 2012 would it cause the car not to start? Car has power and will crank manual but won't turn over. Push start does not turn the engine over.
What is the vehicle doesn’t register neutral on the dash indicator. Skips from reverse to drive on indicator but motor and trans is a neutral when clicked into neutral position
I know this is old but I just ran across it. I have a 05 maxima and I get the hard shifting when going from park to drive and also I can feel a thump when it shift when driving. One that is not mentioned that I'm wondering if it has to do with the speed sensor is when I'm sitting at a red light and it changes to green, when I start to accelerate I feel a couple of hesitations before it starts to actually accelerate correctly. Almost like 2 to 3 hiccups before it picks up. I also get the long shift change intrevals
Well I have 2013 ford f150 5.0L today when I was driving all sudden my rpms were going but my speed needle stayed at zero with a wrench 🔧 light came on so I pulled over and shut truck off for 5mins and turned it back on and all sudden everything was working speed meter was showing my speed so I wondering what the problem is?
Hopefully you reply I have a infiniti q50 2015. With about 70k miles I have a speed sensor problem I replaced one and it didn't work. Car only goes up to 30mph and over revs sucks up gas like crazy any help it's also throw off a bunch of other codes but main one is the speed sensor weird thing is I was able to use the manual mode and shift to 6th gear and car was running smooth just not the same power as before any help ?
2004 Buick Century. speedo started dropping to 0 in motion, followed by a hardshift jolt while shifting. replaced air filter, oil and topped trans fluid because i needed to anyway, then i replaced the MAF sensor, fuel filter, and VSS. buick is way swifter in acceleration from all the new parts. takes longer to start sometimes now, likely due to the new fuel filter, but none of this eliminated the hardshifting. i'm suspecting wiring issues now. got a lot of money into this supposedly easy fix and it's still not fixed. mechanic told me it was instrument cluster and i disagreed. it's either VSS or transmission input/output sensors. no idea.
I have a peugeot 206 automatic car and at times the speedo dies when I am driving and there is a noticeable drop in engine power. At times when I first start the car the speedo needle goes up and down a few times. Could this be due to a fault in the transmission speed sensor? Thanks
Hi I'm having same symptoms you are describing it's an automatic transmission I been having code c1212 in my history which that code for my Kia optima is faulty speed sensor. I have noticed rough idle and just doesn't accelerate as before hesitates a lot, could it be this sensor even though I don't have check engine light on just code in the history? Could it also cause transmission to slip when driving at highway speeds?
Cover Honda Civic 2016 CvT transmiss control for a little bit and then after that when you start heating up I don't want to shift no more get stuck in first gear any update on that or information
Everything you said is going on with my car except the needles bouncing all around cruise don’t work will not switch to low gears or go pass 20 mph Nd 3000 rpm engine light bounces in out am I having this sensor issue
Does a faulty wheel sensor cause the parking brake light to come on sometimes?. I have a 2013 Veloster with a rear right wheel speed sensor faulty. ABS and Traction control lights are on. because of that. But lately, i have noticed my parking brake lights also indicate on the display and it causes the car to move slowly. Could this be an effect of the faulty wheel sensor?

Does a unhooked ground give u a ✔ engine on a ram 1500 09? It's trowing me a code for a bad cam sensor and my traction light came on after replacing a transmission from the junk yard..thanks
I Had my 98 Mark VIII in the shop for a VSS replacement and my light stayed off and I even drove 30ish miles and it passed emissions. Anyways a few days later I drove to work and once I got onto the freeway a check transmission message came and the ODoff light came on flashing. I was able to shift from OD to D n problem. I turned it off for 10 minutes and turned it on no more light or message. Then I tried using cruise control then it disengaged randomly. I kept trying to turn it on but it would turn off instantly then my check engine light came on. Could it be the transmission output shaft sensor?
Hi i have 91 gmc suburban 4x4 3/4 ton. When my speedometer starts bouncing around, and shifts weird. BUT ALSO my brake light comes on and my ABS kicks in giving me a hard pedal. Is my older style vss and abs related? Does the abs use my transmission speed sensor to engage the abs? Ive had problems figuring this out. The problem is almost always congruent to each other (trans and speed is off/and abs kicks in together 99 percent of the time) It is also intermittent. Any help would be great
Question, 2014 lexus es350 starts out smooth when in drive, then kicks hard into 2nd gear and all other gears, CEL comes on, track off comes on, no cruise control, speedo works, then at times it shifts sluggish once I start going some more after I stop and it's warmed up. I can't tell, but it looks like my speed sensor is inside the pan. If it is, do u know if it easy to replace. Codes p0793, p0746, p2714. What's your thoughts. Thanks! BTW any chance it can be dirty? If I dropped the pan and cleaned everything down with electrical cleaner, think that may make a difference?
My 2008 nissan quest is hard shifting. When I stop at stop sighns it takes off slowly and I have to build speed. I put it in reverse and it makes a loud pop same as drive.it gave me cam shaft codes I changed both camshafts and im thinking this is whats wrong. My check engine light, slip and tcs off light is on and come back after erasing.
My 95 f150 likes to start off in second pulled pcm out and we'll what do ya know blow comparators but noticed speedometer wouldn't start moving till about 10mph and would just spring up so
I remember finding out about the vehicle speed sensor on my 1999 mercury. It was located left driver side side inside transmission. It was so old I needed to drill out the vss out so I can remove it. Was pretty simple to swap just ont get confused with automatic and manual. I ended up installing a manual vss instead of a automatic
Hi hope you answe i have a sonata 2011. My car start get stuck in the 3erd all my food is in the pedal gas and nothing it stuck in the shift You think it could be the speed sensor?
Than you very much. This is exactly how my 2000 Nissan exterra is acting. Just finally got a Midas diagnosis and it says speed sensor PO500. Had a very bad bad shade tree mechanic who could not fix this but instead fixing irrelevant things in my exterra. One morning I stopped at the shop he just moved to after he had left the previous shop he worked at. Stopped there that morning and complain to him again that my exterra was shifting bad and gasping fir air especially the RPM going to red. I told him I am afraid to dry it above the red 60 kmph line. Thus shade tree mechanic checked and said he don't fine anything wrong.after reading with a code finding .he even said I can drive pass the red. So I took off rushing to the job site. Speeding and guess what blew my engine. Called him towed it to his place. He said blown engine. I still remember while driving as I passed that 6 to 7 RPM line.like cutting an elastic, so I sat thetr trying to start the car and as I turn my ignition I had a strong trigger explosion. Like some metal piece blowing out of my engine the whole engine jerked up like some kind of bullet jamming in a gun. I am explaining this because my instinct is telling me this mechanic might have threw a piece of metal in my engine just to sarbotage me. Well I didn't know better.towed the car back to his son's shop where he has just moved to.he said you blew the engine.Well if he would half fixed and caught the real read out of a bed sensor .just to make a long story short I bought a new refurbished exterra engine from S&W automotive Atlanta decatur it took this mechanic three and the half weeks to replace the engine. I paid him $600.00 took the truck 4 days after it was leaking ad hehe had put a loose clamp on one of the transmission hose. I had to buy 3 clamps and a hose. After he change them took my Nissan drove to home depot saw big smoke coming into the car from the air vent, guess what when I popped my hood , becon the guy parking next to me, who looked down and told me that my general computer wire was touching my engine and would have smoked out abd burn out damaging everything that computes car guess what .So this mechanic had just clamp the hose next to the wire and let it hang loose. To make a long story short next day my car started leaking oil profusely from the engine pan.so I was directed to a new mechanic who told me that he replace the engine and did not put the valve seal.This new mechanic just put the new valve seal and will be working on putting the speed sensor this morning.
I have a 2016 hyundai elantra 1.8 engine,I'm getting a code PO722,where is the location of it? I have looked and there seems to be 2 different items n location. Can u help thanks
I have a 2021 Honda CRV, the dealer is telling me it is the speed sensor issue I'm having. The break system light was on, and scrolling were Migration system issue, cruse control issue, lane departure issue. It also lunged a couple of time, and when I turned the car back on to take it to the dealer, the engine revved as if I was pushing the gas peddle to the floor, but I was not touching it. It does not seem to me that the issues I was having would be associated with the speed sensor - any thoughts, or suggestions please.
I got a 2000 dodge Dakota r/t. It's been raining for three days and I took her out today and the speedo dropped to 0 and put me in limp mode after 2 min on hw.(1st). I sat on the side of the highway for a few minutes then it let me go through the gears fine again the did it 3x b4 making it home. I'm thinking it's the speed sensor again. I replaced it 4 years ago when it would shift out of first one day and it fixed it. My cruise control is out as well. Thx
I’ve replaced both with original oem replacement and I still get the code po715 after clearing codes as well I also noticed that the wire for the speed sensor with the needle was cracked any idea what to do
Thank you for sharing..one question: on my 09 gmc sierra the RPMS shutter or 'idle' up and down as i am slowing down, for example as i slow down from 50mph, it shutters at around 30mph, then at 20mph, and one last time just before completely stopping...is this a bad torque converter or transmission issue?...or more like an engine idle issue like throttle body or similar engine issue?...thank you
My 08 crown vic just had the tranny and the input/turbine speed sencer replaced and it’s having these problems and only throwing the p0715 code saying(input/turbine speed sencer A Circuit) and also miss fires on acceleration for a sec than throws a wrench and engine light but the tranny place swears it’s not the tranny and I’ve replaced everything that may cause a misfire
Oh thank you, I have a 1999 Volkswagen Passat, and it has almost all of those symptoms, it also will make the engine run a lower idle too, we’re it shouldn’t, anyway have a new transmission speed sensor coming, and I’ll update when I get it installed
This did fix issue, although it still has problems running a good idle but have learn about throttle body adaption so maybe the speed sensor doesn’t mess with that.
can a bad speed sensor or tone ring cause a car to not leave first gear? My car had an abs misfunction and then a minute later the car wouldn't go above 5 or 10 MPH, I also heard grinding noises when trying to accelerate. I pulled over, turned the car off and back on and then it functioned normally, plugging a scan tool in showed that the car has a problem with a front left speed sensor; both front tone rings are also cracked, which is likely the cause of the braking trouble.
It is hard to shift down gear we go from 30 mph to like 15 in seconds and it is making a loud noise is this the speed thing or the transmission its self
@@VarnHomestead it happened once and i restarted my car and went back to 2. However a month later my engine light came on and my car downshifted by itself and i had to pull over. I got the engine code and its a speed sensor in my transmission im getting fixed today. Im assuming the speed sensor has something to do with the high idle but i have no idea.
Thanks for the video.Had a question I have a 04 Jeep Liberty automatic transmission.I’m getting a P0700 and before I change out the PCM I’m wondering if a bad sensor would cause that code.cause right when it throws the code my Jeep gets stuck in second gear and you feel it slam into second gear when it happens.also happens when the transmission goes to down shift it will slam into the lower gear then the light comes on and the P0700 code shows up.any help be great.just trying to replace the cheap stuff before the PCM.but after replacing the 2 sensors I’m just gona get a PCM.I already changed throttle position sensor,Also the MAP sensor but that was bad and had to be changed.and now the 2 sensors when they arrive.Any info or ideas will be great.oh also checked for a short in the harness nothing.checked volts and all good.and vacuum lines.
I have a 2007 Hyundai Azera limited. It was driving normal and out of the blue it started when taking off from a red light. The rpms go high but no acceleration at all I put the pedal to the floor the rpms would shoot up but couldn’t go no more then 25-30mph. Sometimes it won’t move at all now like it’s stuck in neutral. Sometimes if I rev the rpms high long enough it will move but it’s doesn’t slam into the next gear like BOOM!!! The only code that comes up is p0157 which is 02 circuit low voltage (bank 2 , sensor 2). Speed odometer works fine and when it was running it had a rough idle and misfire I fixed that then couple days later now she don’t wanna run no more now when I put it in drive it won’t move and it smells kinda like transmission fluid
Hello, so I have a 09 dodge challenger rt 5.7 manual and I bought the car with 31,000 miles, now it has about 41,000 miles and I've notice that I am having some hard shirting . should I replace the transmission oil or can it be the speed sensor or the transmission shift solenoid. I just want the thing to shift more smooth, it shifts too hard at times.. any advice out there? appreciated in advance. thanks

Hey Hi, I have a problem with my 09 Silverado 4.3 . Problem is ones in a while when I get to a stop sign, my ABS Light turns on then I go I pick up to 30miles but my speedometer stays on ( 0) I shift it in to nutral for 2 seconds speedometer jumps into the right miles than I bring the shifter back to drive and I could drive like this All day , but it only happens 1 time a day , I have done so much work to the truck took it to 3 different good shops and can't find the problem ....???
I have a 2010 Chevy cobalt and for a few weeks now my car after about 15 min driving, will yes make a huge thud when driving from 1 to second gear. Once I’m cruising above second gear, it’s not a problem. It occurs only when I make a full stop, and then drive to second gear. Also when I shift from Drive-to reverse, or vice versa, it makes a huge pop as well. Mechanics have checked everything from the actual transmission, the battery etc and could not find anything. But this is the only thing I’ve found so far where it describes my issue to the T.
Hi I have a problem with my 2005 Mitsubishi Shogun/pajero auto where it doesn't always select 1st gear for pulling away and goes into 2nd making it feel really lethargic. Sometimes it does sometimes it doesn't. I've had it to a gearbox place local to me and it isn't throwing any fault codes up. They have replaced the ATF and filter to no avail. Please help. Thanks Martin👍👍👍
My P71 2008 crown vic has started to cause hard downshift at about 30-40 mph and sometimes it will seem like it kicks out of gear into neutral or drops gear at the wrong speed but doesnt do this all the time. Usually it shifts fine but recently it was a little sporadic here and there and just today the hard down shift started and really freaked me out because I can feel the car shake when it happens so I parked it. I have no check engine lights coming on and i recently changed the transmission filter and the fluid looks fine. Its got a lot of miles almost 200k and I know the transmission should be replaced but could it be a solenoid? and if so can it be detected without check engine light coming on and what would that cost to replace?
Yes it should kick a CEL but I have seen this happen with no CEL.. My wifes Mercedes did this and I use to have a jeep that did this No CEL, but when I replaced the Sensor everything worked as it should. Cost for parts is usually around 10 to 50 dollars depending on what you replace DIY. I don't know about getting a shop to do it depends on the shop.
@@VarnHomestead Thank you much appreciated. I like to have some knowledge as I have to take it to a shop and at least can prevent them from thinking im a fool and try to get tons of money out me lol. This way I can direct them to that first and see if that is the issue. Worst case for a $50 part maybe $300 total cant imagine more than few hours work. I did take it to the local store by me a little while ago and this time it wasnt acting up so your most likely correct on the sensor

2004 Buick Century. speedo started dropping to 0 in motion, followed by a hardshift jolt while shifting. replaced air filter, oil and topped trans fluid because i needed to anyway, then i replaced the MAF sensor, fuel filter, and VSS. buick is way swifter in acceleration from all the new parts. takes longer to start sometimes now, likely due to the new fuel filter, but none of this eliminated the hardshifting. i'm suspecting wiring issues now. got a lot of money into this supposedly easy fix and it's still not fixed. mechanic told me it was instrument cluster and i disagreed. it's either VSS or transmission input/output sensors. no idea.
I have a peugeot 206 automatic car and at times the speedo dies when I am driving and there is a noticeable drop in engine power. At times when I first start the car the speedo needle goes up and down a few times. Could this be due to a fault in the transmission speed sensor? Thanks
Hi I'm having same symptoms you are describing it's an automatic transmission I been having code c1212 in my history which that code for my Kia optima is faulty speed sensor. I have noticed rough idle and just doesn't accelerate as before hesitates a lot, could it be this sensor even though I don't have check engine light on just code in the history? Could it also cause transmission to slip when driving at highway speeds?
Yeah it could be if it was.me I'd replace it
My Lexus RX300 fail to reverse sometimes. What could be the fault
We got us a regular Scotty Kilmer here! 😂🤣
Cover Honda Civic 2016 CvT transmiss control for a little bit and then after that when you start heating up I don't want to shift no more get stuck in first gear any update on that or information
Everything you said is going on with my car except the needles bouncing all around cruise don’t work will not switch to low gears or go pass 20 mph Nd 3000 rpm engine light bounces in out am I having this sensor issue
What is the labour time to replace a output speed sensor in 2013 Ford f150?

Does a faulty wheel sensor cause the parking brake light to come on sometimes?. I have a 2013 Veloster with a rear right wheel speed sensor faulty. ABS and Traction control lights are on. because of that. But lately, i have noticed my parking brake lights also indicate on the display and it causes the car to move slowly. Could this be an effect of the faulty wheel sensor?

Does a unhooked ground give u a ✔ engine on a ram 1500 09? It's trowing me a code for a bad cam sensor and my traction light came on after replacing a transmission from the junk yard..thanks
I Had my 98 Mark VIII in the shop for a VSS replacement and my light stayed off and I even drove 30ish miles and it passed emissions. Anyways a few days later I drove to work and once I got onto the freeway a check transmission message came and the ODoff light came on flashing. I was able to shift from OD to D n problem. I turned it off for 10 minutes and turned it on no more light or message. Then I tried using cruise control then it disengaged randomly. I kept trying to turn it on but it would turn off instantly then my check engine light came on. Could it be the transmission output shaft sensor?
Hi i have 91 gmc suburban 4x4 3/4 ton. When my speedometer starts bouncing around, and shifts weird. BUT ALSO my brake light comes on and my ABS kicks in giving me a hard pedal. Is my older style vss and abs related? Does the abs use my transmission speed sensor to engage the abs? Ive had problems figuring this out. The problem is almost always congruent to each other (trans and speed is off/and abs kicks in together 99 percent of the time)
It is also intermittent. Any help would be great
We're is it on a 2007 ford mustang and how do I know is it output or input
Question, 2014 lexus es350 starts out smooth when in drive, then kicks hard into 2nd gear and all other gears, CEL comes on, track off comes on, no cruise control, speedo works, then at times it shifts sluggish once I start going some more after I stop and it's warmed up. I can't tell, but it looks like my speed sensor is inside the pan. If it is, do u know if it easy to replace. Codes p0793, p0746, p2714. What's your thoughts. Thanks! BTW any chance it can be dirty? If I dropped the pan and cleaned everything down with electrical cleaner, think that may make a difference?
Will it stop the car stop after being driven for a minuet if Speed sensor is bad ?
Car is 2004 Nissan Maxima SE
Thank you for the information brother you rock!
Wow fantastic video , just fixed my issue , had no idea
Great to hear!
what cause "input speed sensor "to read lower than "output speed sensor" in DIRECT DRIVE 1x1?
My 2008 nissan quest is hard shifting. When I stop at stop sighns it takes off slowly and I have to build speed. I put it in reverse and it makes a loud pop same as drive.it gave me cam shaft codes I changed both camshafts and im thinking this is whats wrong. My check engine light, slip and tcs off light is on and come back after erasing.
I think I got the same thing happening with my Altima
My 95 f150 likes to start off in second pulled pcm out and we'll what do ya know blow comparators but noticed speedometer wouldn't start moving till about 10mph and would just spring up so
I remember finding out about the vehicle speed sensor on my 1999 mercury. It was located left driver side side inside transmission. It was so old I needed to drill out the vss out so I can remove it. Was pretty simple to swap just ont get confused with automatic and manual. I ended up installing a manual vss instead of a automatic
Hi hope you answe i have a sonata 2011.
My car start get stuck in the 3erd all my food is in the pedal gas and nothing it stuck in the shift You think it could be the speed sensor?
Than you very much. This is exactly how my 2000 Nissan exterra is acting. Just finally got a Midas diagnosis and it says speed sensor PO500. Had a very bad bad shade tree mechanic who could not fix this but instead fixing irrelevant things in my exterra. One morning I stopped at the shop he just moved to after he had left the previous shop he worked at. Stopped there that morning and complain to him again that my exterra was shifting bad and gasping fir air especially the RPM going to red. I told him I am afraid to dry it above the red 60 kmph line. Thus shade tree mechanic checked and said he don't fine anything wrong.after reading with a code finding .he even said I can drive pass the red. So I took off rushing to the job site. Speeding and guess what blew my engine. Called him towed it to his place. He said blown engine. I still remember while driving as I passed that 6 to 7 RPM line.like cutting an elastic, so I sat thetr trying to start the car and as I turn my ignition I had a strong trigger explosion. Like some metal piece blowing out of my engine the whole engine jerked up like some kind of bullet jamming in a gun. I am explaining this because my instinct is telling me this mechanic might have threw a piece of metal in my engine just to sarbotage me. Well I didn't know better.towed the car back to his son's shop where he has just moved to.he said you blew the engine.Well if he would half fixed and caught the real read out of a bed sensor .just to make a long story short I bought a new refurbished exterra engine from S&W automotive Atlanta decatur it took this mechanic three and the half weeks to replace the engine. I paid him $600.00 took the truck 4 days after it was leaking ad hehe had put a loose clamp on one of the transmission hose. I had to buy 3 clamps and a hose. After he change them took my Nissan drove to home depot saw big smoke coming into the car from the air vent, guess what when I popped my hood , becon the guy parking next to me, who looked down and told me that my general computer wire was touching my engine and would have smoked out abd burn out damaging everything that computes car guess what .So this mechanic had just clamp the hose next to the wire and let it hang loose. To make a long story short next day my car started leaking oil profusely from the engine pan.so I was directed to a new mechanic who told me that he replace the engine and did not put the valve seal.This new mechanic just put the new valve seal and will be working on putting the speed sensor this morning.
Misfurtune for bad mechanic. Im sorry for what happened

I have a 2016 hyundai elantra 1.8 engine,I'm getting a code PO722,where is the location of it? I have looked and there seems to be 2 different items n location. Can u help thanks
I have a 2021 Honda CRV, the dealer is telling me it is the speed sensor issue I'm having. The break system light was on, and scrolling were Migration system issue, cruse control issue, lane departure issue. It also lunged a couple of time, and when I turned the car back on to take it to the dealer, the engine revved as if I was pushing the gas peddle to the floor, but I was not touching it. It does not seem to me that the issues I was having would be associated with the speed sensor - any thoughts, or suggestions please.
I got a 2000 dodge Dakota r/t. It's been raining for three days and I took her out today and the speedo dropped to 0 and put me in limp mode after 2 min on hw.(1st). I sat on the side of the highway for a few minutes then it let me go through the gears fine again the did it 3x b4 making it home. I'm thinking it's the speed sensor again. I replaced it 4 years ago when it would shift out of first one day and it fixed it. My cruise control is out as well. Thx
I have a 2008 Nissan Altima 3.5 and my car is stuck on first gear and I do have a check engine could it be the speed sensor?
would it cause overdrive problems
I’ve replaced both with original oem replacement and I still get the code po715 after clearing codes as well I also noticed that the wire for the speed sensor with the needle was cracked any idea what to do
TPMS lamp goes on? I have an indirect TPMS system.
Can it also cause a limp mode?
2006 Mustang auto, had O/D (over drive ) light come come on also.
Thank you for sharing..one question: on my 09 gmc sierra the RPMS shutter or 'idle' up and down as i am slowing down, for example as i slow down from 50mph, it shutters at around 30mph, then at 20mph, and one last time just before completely stopping...is this a bad torque converter or transmission issue?...or more like an engine idle issue like throttle body or similar engine issue?...thank you
sounds like a bad or failing IACV. Does it seem like it wants to stall?
My 08 crown vic just had the tranny and the input/turbine speed sencer replaced and it’s having these problems and only throwing the p0715 code saying(input/turbine speed sencer A Circuit) and also miss fires on acceleration for a sec than throws a wrench and engine light but the tranny place swears it’s not the tranny and I’ve replaced everything that may cause a misfire
Oh thank you, I have a 1999 Volkswagen Passat, and it has almost all of those symptoms, it also will make the engine run a lower idle too, we’re it shouldn’t, anyway have a new transmission speed sensor coming, and I’ll update when I get it installed
Did it fix your issue?
This did fix issue, although it still has problems running a good idle but have learn about throttle body adaption so maybe the speed sensor doesn’t mess with that.
can a bad speed sensor or tone ring cause a car to not leave first gear? My car had an abs misfunction and then a minute later the car wouldn't go above 5 or 10 MPH, I also heard grinding noises when trying to accelerate. I pulled over, turned the car off and back on and then it functioned normally, plugging a scan tool in showed that the car has a problem with a front left speed sensor; both front tone rings are also cracked, which is likely the cause of the braking trouble.
It is hard to shift down gear we go from 30 mph to like 15 in seconds and it is making a loud noise is this the speed thing or the transmission its self
My car had a high idle.. it was at 3 when it's normally always at the 2. I drive a Honda. Best car i've ever owned.
high idle, is usually the IACV valve. or a vacuum leak. does it surge like bouncing idle?
@@VarnHomestead it happened once and i restarted my car and went back to 2. However a month later my engine light came on and my car downshifted by itself and i had to pull over. I got the engine code and its a speed sensor in my transmission im getting fixed today. Im assuming the speed sensor has something to do with the high idle but i have no idea.
Thanks for the video.Had a question I have a 04 Jeep Liberty automatic transmission.I’m getting a P0700 and before I change out the PCM I’m wondering if a bad sensor would cause that code.cause right when it throws the code my Jeep gets stuck in second gear and you feel it slam into second gear when it happens.also happens when the transmission goes to down shift it will slam into the lower gear then the light comes on and the P0700 code shows up.any help be great.just trying to replace the cheap stuff before the PCM.but after replacing the 2 sensors I’m just gona get a PCM.I already changed throttle position sensor,Also the MAP sensor but that was bad and had to be changed.and now the 2 sensors when they arrive.Any info or ideas will be great.oh also checked for a short in the harness nothing.checked volts and all good.and vacuum lines.
Any updates Im having the same issue
I have a 2007 Hyundai Azera limited. It was driving normal and out of the blue it started when taking off from a red light. The rpms go high but no acceleration at all I put the pedal to the floor the rpms would shoot up but couldn’t go no more then 25-30mph. Sometimes it won’t move at all now like it’s stuck in neutral. Sometimes if I rev the rpms high long enough it will move but it’s doesn’t slam into the next gear like BOOM!!! The only code that comes up is p0157 which is 02 circuit low voltage (bank 2 , sensor 2). Speed odometer works fine and when it was running it had a rough idle and misfire I fixed that then couple days later now she don’t wanna run no more now when I put it in drive it won’t move and it smells kinda like transmission fluid
Hello, so I have a 09 dodge challenger rt 5.7 manual and I bought the car with 31,000 miles, now it has about 41,000 miles and I've notice that I am having some hard shirting . should I replace the transmission oil or can it be the speed sensor or the transmission shift solenoid. I just want the thing to shift more smooth, it shifts too hard at times.. any advice out there? appreciated in advance. thanks
I'd start with the speed sensor and fluid change.. I have done solenoids but I wouldn't crack the case unless you have to.
@@VarnHomestead Thanks will try that....
In a 2006 chevy colbolt what can cause the rpm to work but not the speedometer
VSS (vehicle speed sensor), or a bad ECU.
You the goat that’s man 🙏🏾
My Nissan car automatic when you drive when it reaches speed of 100 it cant exceed such speed even if press the gas pedal to the bottom, i have checked the transmission fluid is ok and is on required level, what can be the problem, kindly let me know how to fix it.
hello i have a 2003 ford taurus when i put it in drive and go to give it gas it hesitates very little then jumps like making the tires jump then it drives fine at other gears
I have a 2000 3.8 mustang when I accelerate to the top the engine accelerates but the transmission takes time to catch the shift but if I lower the engine revolutions a little, the shift applies i need help
I have a 2014 JEEP JKU and you described my problem EXACTLY. Staying at 4th and not going up in Gears. SPEEDSENSORs being replaced this weekend. Also, Is there a specific way to determine if front or back is faulty.
not without a CEL and Code.. I have had to replace both in my old jeep.
Hey Mitch I have a 2002 Lexus IS300 manual 5 speed transmission. I was cruising down the highway about a month ago and all the sudden my cruise control cut off and the speedometer stopped working. The next day everything worked fine and haven't had a problem since then. Could this possible mean that my speed sensor is going bad and starting to fail?
Please my 2004 Kia Spactra LX (Automatic) The gear is not charging well nowadays anytime I accelerate it has to take long for the gear to change. When Am accelerating it not working properly like I have applied break then’ it comes by false very fast’ boom 💥 The Fuel too also running fast please any help?

Hello, i have a f250 7.3 4x4 the overdrive light blinks, and sometimes the transmission shifts fine, but regularly it always bangs into gears and what can it be, any help is aprreciated, thanks.
i have a 2001 chevy blazer 4wd 4.3 l v6 i changed speed sensor out and speedometer went too working but know it does not will the throttle position sensor cause it not too work on showing speed?
I have a Chevy Tahoe it runs ok but some times it won't go on to third and then the rpm goes all the way up and I don't have a check engine light either on the freeway runs like on 3rd it won't shift the other gears so the engine is too loud because is not doing the other shifts what can it be
My nissan maxima 2014 is having a few of those symptoms but it just wont drive at all i put it in D or R n its like its in neutral is that also speed sensor please get back to me if u have answers 😓😓😪😪😥😥😤😤
Hey Hi, I have a problem with my 09 Silverado 4.3 . Problem is ones in a while when I get to a stop sign, my ABS Light turns on then I go I pick up to 30miles but my speedometer stays on ( 0) I shift it in to nutral for 2 seconds speedometer jumps into the right miles than I bring the shifter back to drive and I could drive like this All day , but it only happens 1 time a day , I have done so much work to the truck took it to 3 different good shops and can't find the problem ....???
Ok will the AT check light come on if this is the issue?
I have a 2010 Chevy cobalt and for a few weeks now my car after about 15 min driving, will yes make a huge thud when driving from 1 to second gear. Once I’m cruising above second gear, it’s not a problem. It occurs only when I make a full stop, and then drive to second gear. Also when I shift from Drive-to reverse, or vice versa, it makes a huge pop as well. Mechanics have checked everything from the actual transmission, the battery etc and could not find anything. But this is the only thing I’ve found so far where it describes my issue to the T.
I'm having similar issues of to what your. Was it being the speed sensor for your situation. Thx
Yes 2010 Chevy Express here, did you get it corrected? Thanks
Is this the same as the ABS wheel speed sensor?
No, this sensor communicates information to keep the torque converter from locking up.

Yea I had mine replaced for a $100....but I had to buy the part ... Thanks for the reply...
Amazing input sir
Hi I have a problem with my 2005 Mitsubishi Shogun/pajero auto where it doesn't always select 1st gear for pulling away and goes into 2nd making it feel really lethargic. Sometimes it does sometimes it doesn't. I've had it to a gearbox place local to me and it isn't throwing any fault codes up. They have replaced the ATF and filter to no avail. Please help. Thanks Martin👍👍👍
I'm still struggling with my gearbox. I've bought an input and output speed sensors and hope it works out.
My P71 2008 crown vic has started to cause hard downshift at about 30-40 mph and sometimes it will seem like it kicks out of gear into neutral or drops gear at the wrong speed but doesnt do this all the time. Usually it shifts fine but recently it was a little sporadic here and there and just today the hard down shift started and really freaked me out because I can feel the car shake when it happens so I parked it. I have no check engine lights coming on and i recently changed the transmission filter and the fluid looks fine. Its got a lot of miles almost 200k and I know the transmission should be replaced but could it be a solenoid? and if so can it be detected without check engine light coming on and what would that cost to replace?
Yes it should kick a CEL but I have seen this happen with no CEL.. My wifes Mercedes did this and I use to have a jeep that did this No CEL, but when I replaced the Sensor everything worked as it should. Cost for parts is usually around 10 to 50 dollars depending on what you replace DIY. I don't know about getting a shop to do it depends on the shop.
@@VarnHomestead Thank you much appreciated. I like to have some knowledge as I have to take it to a shop and at least can prevent them from thinking im a fool and try to get tons of money out me lol. This way I can direct them to that first and see if that is the issue. Worst case for a $50 part maybe $300 total cant imagine more than few hours work. I did take it to the local store by me a little while ago and this time it wasnt acting up so your most likely correct on the sensor
Has your speedometer and odometer stopped displaying too? Thanks
My nissan pathfinder 2005 dci automatic only driving in 3rd gear. Speed reduces and Il have to switch off and start again. Also struggling to Pull or drive when switching on
Before my transmission went out (while driving) it was flashing the neutral position. Gears just buzz when changing with the key to on position.
