How to Fix a Speedometer Gauge in Your Car (Speed Sensor) 

Scotty Kilmer hey Scotty I ordered a vss and it wasn't quite the same but I was able to install it now something is causing my battery light to come on even with new alternator. Could it be the VSS?

Does a automatic transmission shift normally if the speed sensor cable is broken? My cars transmission won't shift anymore and the speed indicator is on 0 when I'm driving.

Scotty Kilmer i have a question....if that sensor doesn't work it will pop up the check engine light????

Scotty Kilmer , hey Scott can you please make a video on how to add top speed on to a speedometer , cause my c1500 cluster has a top speed of 80 but I want to add 30 more so it can have a top speed of 110 like the 1990-1992 454ss .

..my speedometer stopped working in 08 suzuki sx4. Looked up part you suggest but abs speed sensor keeps coming up..is that the same thing? When i read on it mentions driver side rear side. I had seen part on autozone that looks like part you show yet costs up to $100, is that correct for the right part?

Good to know

Saab 900 was a beast Scotty ! Atleast the engine was bulletproof anyways...

I was going to ask also if both the odometer and the speedometer is not working is this due to the speed sensor also ? 1 more question also if you can reply. My radiator fan turns on automatically when i start my car. Doesn't turn off at all... cars computer seems to be fine everything works. Would it be bad wiring or would it be another sensor problem?

Scotty Kilmer hi Scotty I've changed vehicle speed sensor but still same mater

check the wiring for shorts, if not that, generally a bad dash speedo head

Scotty Kilmer I seen a few of them, And it is awesome that you help people out, I been watching your videos for like a year now. And they are interesting. But i also have something to ask, I own a 1993 honda accord. And the car has been sputtering, Like when i get up to speed, And stay at 1 speed, Like 55 MPH. The car starts sputtering, It started doing this last saturday, Not sure if you would know what is making it do that. But any help would be appreciated, Thanks

AP15sub4sub number one problem on that model is a wearing out distributor causing hesitation and eventual non starting. Number two is a carboned up engine, try my video "how to clean fuel injectors on your car"

Scotty Kilmer Thanks, This will help alot, I will take a look at it and see if that is the problem. Thanks scotty

CuttingEdgeExperiments I've got a friend with the same problem. Learning how to fix hers. If I figure it out I'll tell ya!

CuttingEdgeExperiments I have a similar issue with mine. But instead of a computer it happens to have a cable so I guess I can just lube it

Vivian Rodriguez lol right. Must be nice

🤣

The intake is more of a suggestion anyways 😂😂

Well, it's magnetic, didn't you know, ha.

Glad to hear it, thanks!

yea, but scotty's women never cheated on him. After me, they wanted a break from action.

generally that's a bad speed sensor, perhaps he didn't use a toyota oem factory sensor. Or, a bad dash unit also does that, that guy saying he "rebuilt" the dash sounds like crap to me, transistors really don't go bad on toyotas, sounds like he was B.S.ing you. I'd go somewhere else this time if I were you

Thank you Scotty, I will do that. I really enjoy the channel and the live show. You deserve all the success in the world for providing people this service. PS I'm going to have to buy that Go-2 socket. That's a lot of added self confidence in my toolbox for only $15! PSS Both my parents got a kick out of the Mercedes video and I think mom's going to stick with her Toyota now so you've saved her some money there.

heymisterderp Sure enough, the problem returned again! I accidentally erased the CEL code by disconnecting the battery, but that was the night before I realized this car is OBD2! ('94 Camry 1MZ V6, hiding behind the ashtray). And since then, it hasn't blown another code yet, but to run a quick test, I disconnected the Vehicle Speed Sensor and then turned the ignition to On, and the speedometer rose to 30mph just sitting in the driveway with a cold motor and the VSS unplugged. So I know the problem isn't the sensor (I'm now the proud owner of TWO good Toyota speed sensors and TWO good Toyota computers! Arggh!). Weird thing too, the speedometer seems to act better when the car is warmed up. The speedometer has stayed on the zero with the ignition On before starting the motor - after it's hot. Maybe that's just coincidence but I've noticed it like that for the past three days straight. I would love to trace the pins of the three wires coming out of the Vehicle Speed Sensor but all three disappears into the wiring harness. I presume one wire is power from a fuse somewhere, one communicates with the speedometer and the third one goes (grounds maybe?) to the ECU. Since the problem is intermittent and the results are so elusive/variable, does this indicate it's likely a conduction/wiring problem somewhere in the wire jungle? Or what else might be a likely culprit? I sure wish this is my 1976 Datsun, I can read the schematic for that. :)
