Car Forum / Oldsmobile Cars / September 200898 Intrigue speed sensor failing
My '98 Intrigue GL needs a new VSS vehicle speed sensor. Tranny's no shifting beyond ''Drive'' (1st gear?), and the speedometer isn't working The repair shop got a code PO502 when diagnosing, indicating speed senso low voltage, shorting out. I'm no mechanic, but could I replace the speed sensor myself? And if so is there anyone who can spell out the steps for doing so - Message posted using http://www.talkaboutautos.com/group/alt.autos.oldsmobile More information at http://www.talkaboutautos.com/faq.htm What engine? > My '98 Intrigue GL needs a new VSS vehicle speed sensor.
