This indicates the need for the computer codes to be read from the computer. This will lead a technician to the cause for the light to be lit, which may be related to the ABS system being nonfunctional, which is most likely related to the loss of Vehicle Speed Sensor input signals to both the Computer and the instrument panel. Should all of this be tied together as interrelated issues, finding the cause for the interruption of the VSS signal and effecting repairs could alleviate all the problems. NOTE: An "ABS" or "VSS" code is no indication that these components are faulty. The code serves to inform a technician that the values from these sensors is out-of-range for the conditions surrounding vehicle operation at the time the code is set. This may be due to a loss of signal because a wire has broken, or the computer ground is lost, or system voltage has fallen below minimum levels for readings to be obtained, or the alternator has shorted a diode and is producing AC current along the computer's inputs, or a spark plug wire is resting upon an input lead and inducing stray RF signals onto the line that the computer cannot interpret. All this and much more is possible--- which makes necessary the services of a trained professional who can troubleshoot the system in a methodical way to arrive at the root of the problem, and fix it. Any other approach involves guesswork and a waste of time and money, leading to unnecessary anxt and frustration.
What else can I help you with?
Where is the odometer cable located on a 2009 sentra?
Most modern vehicles do not use a speedometer/odometer cable; it's all done by sensors.
What happened if odometer wire is diconected from transmission?
That depends on the year, make, and model. Most newer cars do not have a dedicated speedometer or odometer wire. The speed sensors are also used for shift timing. If it as old enough vehicle that has a dedicated speed sensor the speedometer and cruise would also not work. Some vehicles, such as 1998 on up Dodge trucks, use the abs sensors for the speedometer and odometer.
Where is the speed and or odometer sensor located on a 2007 kj Jeep Cherokee?
The speedometer/ odometer signals come from the ABS sensors. There is a sensor at each wheel bearing.
Why does a Saturn speedometer not work when the odometer does?
In a Saturn, the speedometer and odometer often rely on different sensors to function. While the odometer tracks the distance traveled using information from the vehicle's transmission, the speedometer typically relies on a Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) for real-time speed readings. If the VSS fails or has a wiring issue, the speedometer will stop working while the odometer continues to function normally. Thus, a malfunction in the speed sensor is usually the culprit when the speedometer is non-functional but the odometer still operates.
What does the speed sensor control?
One of the speed sensors runs the speedometer/odometer and transmission shift patterns, other speed sensors run the abs and or traction control.
Which are the different speed sensors?
There are wheel speed sensors for the ABS and traction control systems and there is a vehicle speed sensor (VSS) that the ECM moniters and also operates the speedometer/odometer.
What is the problem when the odometer and speedometer dont work?
Well both of those are from sensors in the wheels so maybe make sure you are using the correct wheels.
Where is the speed sensor on 2000 Dodge Durango?
The speedometer signal comes from the ABS sensor on top of the rear axle. The trans also has speed sensors on it for trans shifting.
How many oxygen sensors are there on a 2007 Dodge Durango 4.7 engine?
A 2007 Durango has four oxygen sensors.
Where do you find the speed sensor on a 2002 Dodge Ram?
I want to say that it is located on the side of the transmission. The speedometer and odometer signal comes from the ABS system via the wheel speed sensors.
Can a wheel speed sensor cause speedometer to stop working sometimes on 2000 s10?
No, the wheel speed sensors monitor the wheel speed for the ABS and the TCS. The speed sensor mounted in the transmission monitors the vehicle speed for the speedometer/odometer and transmission controls.
I Changed the abs speed sensor on my 1998 dodge durango and the abs and brake light is still on?
There are 2 speed sensors, check the one on the rear differential also.
