Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) Circuit Test
- Turn ignition switch to OFF position. Remove Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) from transmission, leaving harness connector connected. Disconnect combination meter harness connector M41. See Figure . Using a DVOM set to AC scale, connect leads between terminals No. 3 (Black wire) and No. 15 (Red wire) of harness connector M41. See Figure . Measure voltage while spinning VSS pinion quickly. If about .5 volts exists, VSS circuit is okay. If .5 volts does not exist, go to next step.
- Test VSS. See VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR (VSS) under COMPONENT TESTS. If VSS is defective, replace VSS. If VSS is okay, repair open in Grey/Yellow and/or Black wires.
