Car Forum / Honda Cars / February 200695 accord speedometer pinned on 20mph
95 Accord 4 cyl 5 speed. My speedo is stuck on 30Kph/20mph with the ignition on. Does anybody know where speed sensor is located and how many leads there are. I only see a 2 lead plug on top of the manual tranny and figure this is the reverse gear switch.

Follow the passenger side axle to the tranny then look up. It's 3 wires in a 98 civic. I think it's far more likely to be a messed up cluster than the VSS (Vehicle Speed Sensor). If it was the VSS your check engine light would probably be on. The ECU needs the VSS signals too. My 92 Prelude speedo occasionally sticks on about 40km/h. I've always assumed it was a mechanical problem, but could it be something else?

But his speedo trouble was also accompanied by automatic shift problems and odd behavior from the shift quadrant lights and the "S" light. He replaced the VSS and all the problems went away.

Well, I could be wrong. I'd just expect additional symptoms. |
