if i remember correctly they did not start using an electronic speedometer in f150's till 1992 so your vehicle should still have a mechanical speedometer which has a cable ran down to your transmission. the sensor on the rear differential on those models is an abs sensor on 92 and later its the abs and speed sensor.

What part needs to be replaced for a 1989 Nissan Sentra when the odometer and speedometer are not working?
Most of the time, the speedometer cable breaks, and you replace it. The best way to find out, is to unscrew it from the transmission, and see if you can pull the cable out from the casing. If it checks out to be good, then it will be the drive gear inside the transmission, or the speedometer itself.
If speedometer not working 1998 Dodge Ram 1500 told speed sensor bad Replaced but speedometer still not working Speed sensor is magnetic type not wheel type?
There is an "ABS Differential Sensor" on top of the rear differential that controls your speedometer. Napa part number UP 530778 or UP 530846. take the old one in with you to make sure you get the right one. i believe there are 2 pin and 3 pin versions. FYI, the one you replaced on the transmission is for the powertrain control module. that's the one monitored to set your shift points, and i believe, to determine weather you are at a safe speed to shift in and out of 4wd.

What would cause a 1991 Mazda Protege to have a blinking hold light and a non-functional speedometer?
The speedometer cable (which runs from the transmission to the dashboard) has snapped. This is a two-piece cable, and the one-piece cable in later Proteges will not work. I had the transmission replaced, and the cable could never be fit in properly. This is a mechanical speedometer, so you would have to change the entire speedometer part of the instrument panel to use a magnetic/electronic speedometer.

The cable that controls the speedometer needs to be replaced more than likely. That is what had to be done to a Dodge Stealth's speedometer to work properly. ==New Answer == Actually - there is no speedometer/odometer cable on a 1993 Honda. The system is all-electrical. So it has to be either a bad wiring harness/plug connector, OR a bad speedometer head (unlikely).
