    My 93 4runner has been shifting late and hard for a while. This morning Speedo went out and CEL came on. Hope a replacement of speed censor clears up all of these issues! Good video, thanks!

      Tried replacing both speed sensors, Speedo issue is gone but no help with shifting. Reset ECU and codes are now for shift solenoids #2, #4 and TCC solenoid. Pulled the old ones out. They ohm good but TCC solenoid fails to actuate when power applied. All 4 solenoids are on order should arrive tomorrow or Monday.

      @@maine8931solenoids helped greatly with shifting but not 100%. I think the valve body was clogged badly with metal shavings/debris. A bottle of sea foam trans tune helped a bit as well but the hard shifting never fully went away. At operating temp it was always smooth as butter. I was also having what I believed to be torque converter issues where during acceleration the truck would lose power and rev RPM as of the clutch was not engaged. I’ve since sold the truck. Good luck with your work.

      It needs to be diagnosed; a scan tool will give codes that point to the issue. When there is a problem with the engine or transmission, the computer on many vehicles shuts off driver-assist programs such as Trac Control.

    Just had a p0500 on my 2012 corolla, The speedometer stopped working while driving and abs and power steering shut off. Now the p0500 makes sense, But why did my battery light come on then start flashing then disappear? I cleared the code but i will be doing tests on every single one of these sensors, Hopefully no rats chewed through it. I will be using my autel to read each sensor and also so some simple multimeter readings

    Hi. I have a lexus rx 350 2008 model. I had been getting intermittent CEL with a pending code p0717 (turbine shaft input speed sensor No circuit). I took it to a transmission shop. They said it’s issue with sensor and they replaced it. No there is no code or check engine light but car is driving very heavy. Car delays shifting at second gear at low rpm and while making a stop it makes a jerk and clucky sound while its downshifting-to low gears. Can you provide any input regarding this. Thanks

    My car's speed sensor has a problem and a DTC appears after scanning. I have tried replacing the sensor with a new sensor, but the problem is not resolved because if the engine is running the check engine light comes on and if it goes 10/20 meters the check engine light goes off. but if you stop check the engine starts again. the car feels heavy when driving.. what steps do I need to take? if the cable is safe and not broken.

    I have a 93 jeep xj the speed sensor needed changing, the gauge needle was bouncing and misreading the speed. however, I had to buy an aftermarket one and the wiring harness was different with no color-coded wires (all black) after hooking the wires in the order that seemed correct, I tested it out, nothing happened the gauge needle didn't move at all. My question is,
    if I mixed up the wiring, could I have blown a fuse somewhere and also, I unplugged the sensor harness since I don't if the wiring is correct, now my check engine came on could this be due to the speed sensor wiring is disconnected?

    I just purchased a 2013 Nissan Marano sport, utility vehicle. And when you put it in drive, it will not go anywhere. Nor will it let you accelerate when you put it in. Reverse the same thing happens. However, when you put it in park on neutral, you can accelerate and everything works. Could that be a Faulty speed sensor

    im trying to separate the functions and locations of certain issues. i have to determine if i fried my vehicle dynamic control module (VDC) which comes as one piece mounted to the ABS pump (part# 27596FJ190); or, if i just damaged the wheel speed sensor (VSS). i installed new bearings, and knuckles for a slightly later manufacture date. my lights all came on and the car was in limp mode- couldnt even get up to 1k rpm; car was limiting speed through rpm's. I drive a standard, so i shifted to 2dn, and then 3rd gear in that almost-idling state. once in 3rd gear, all the lights that were on in the dash (ABS, hill assist, cruise control, traction control, check engine), blink on and off a few times, then stay on, as the car now comes out of limp mode- but all the lights are stuck on. cleared codes, lights came back, replaced bearings, cleared codes again, lights came back, replaced knuckles, now the codes wont clear with the various scanners. one code is P0500 (WSS A is bad), and the other is U0122 (lost comm's with VDC module). both are permanent. ABS pump comes with a silicone-sealed VDC module...$1600. both codes are permanent.

      It shouldn't need to be reset. If the sensor is replaced, the code is cleared; if it comes back, there is another issue, likely the wiring.

  • @BryanG830

    My car car doesn't go anywhere past 25 mph and it's limited on speed but I could hear the engine revving trying to make the car go faster. And yes the speedometer is going haywire up and down up and down And it feels like the car is going to just shut off or break down. But after driving 5 mi my car can shift past second gear and I could go 55 mph in the speedometer doesn't go haywire anymore but I can no longer go above 55 mph. I do not think that the speed sensor issue. I'm sorry that has to be a bad transmission. I don't think a speed sensor has anything to do with the car acting like this. I think it's straight up. Just a bad transmission. Also there is no check engine light. There are no codes. There is no ABS light on or No traction control light on. So therefore it's just a bad transmission.
