To inspect a Honda Civic Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS), first, locate the sensor, typically found on the transmission or near the vehicle's speedometer cable. Disconnect the electrical connector and check for any visible damage or corrosion. Use a multimeter to measure the resistance across the sensor terminals; if it falls outside the manufacturer's specified range, the sensor may be faulty. Finally, ensure the wiring and connectors are secure and free from damage before reassembling.
The VSS is located on The transmission
the VSS is right on top of the Transmission with a plug on top of the VSS

Code P1717 in a 2007 Honda Odyssey typically indicates a problem with the vehicle speed sensor (VSS) or its circuit. To fix this, first inspect the VSS for any damage or disconnection. If the sensor appears intact, check the wiring and connectors for corrosion or breaks. If necessary, replace the VSS, clear the code, and test drive the vehicle to ensure the issue is resolved.
