Probably. It could also be a connector, damaged wire, faulty computer or any of a number of other problems. A faulty or disconnected VSS can cause hard shifts and the other problems you described. ==NEW ANSWER== DITTO ON THE VSS REPLACEMENT. MY CAR IS NOW BACK TO BEFORE !!...BB

Why will the speedo work on a 1996 Nissan 200sx but the trip and odometer will not?

The odometer runs on the same electronic gear driven sensor as the speedometer so if the speedometer is working and the odometer is not the problem is in the "Speed head" (speedometer unit in the dash). Mine and several others I have seen break at about 40,000 and will need replacing.

1996 ford ranger Odometer and Trip gauge don't work but Speedometer works. How can I fix this Thanks?

Speedometer is ran by electronic sensor on rear end. Odometer is ran from speedometer. If both don't work problem is sensor. If speedometer works sensor is okay. If speedometer works and odometer does not problem is in mechanical parts (gears) of of odometer and has to be replaced. Can get used from eBay (search for speedometer or odometer, is one unit) or take to dealer.


What causes speedometer not to work on gm alero?

If the speedometer and odometer are both not working, I would blame the speed sensor. If only the speedometer does not work and the odometer does work, the cluster is bad.

Does your odometer work? If the speed sensor goes faulty both speedometer and odometer stop working.


How do you replace the odometer sensor on a 1996 Ford Taurus?

There is no such thing as an "odometer sensor." There is a vehicle speed sensor that is located on the output shaft housing of the transmission. That sends info to the speedometer. From there, the speedometer and the odometer are both operated internally, so if your speedo is working, but the odometer isn't, you have a problem inside the speedo head assembly.


Speedometer not working in Chevy 2003 silverado?

If the speedometer is not working but the odometer is, I would suspect the dash cluster is at fault. If both speedometer and odometer are not working I would suspect the speed sensor on the transmission is at fault.


Does speedoMETER not working affect odometer?

Yes, if the speedometer is not working, it can affect the odometer, although they are separate systems. Both typically rely on the vehicle's speed sensor; if the sensor fails, the speedometer may not display speed, and the odometer may not record distance accurately. In some cases, the odometer might continue to function independently, but it often correlates with the speedometer's readings. Therefore, a malfunction in one can indicate potential issues with the other.


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.

If the Odometer on a 2004 Impala LS still works can speedometer sensor problems be the only reason why the speedometer doesn't work?

Stepper motor for speedometer has a broken gear in it, causing unpredictable operation. If the odometer is still working, then the speed sensor is OK. Instrument cluster needs repair.
