Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) Circuit Test
- Turn ignition switch to OFF position. Remove Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) from transmission, leaving harness connector connected. Disconnect instrument cluster White 16-pin harness connector M24. See Figure . Using a DVOM set to AC range, measure voltage between terminals No. 14 (Light Blue wire) and No. 16 (Gray/Yellow wire) at instrument panel harness connector M24 while turning VSS pinion quickly. See Figure . If approximately 5 volts AC does not exist, go to next step. If approximately 5 volts AC exists, VSS circuit is okay at this time.
- Test VSS. See VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR (VSS) under COMPONENT TESTS. If VSS is defective, replace VSS. If VSS is okay, repair open in Light Blue and/or Gray/Yellow wires.
