94 civic vx --speedo problem---- stumped as hell

[coupejordan27]

What up guys

I have a 94 civic vx hatchback having a issue with the speedo
I got a check engine code 17 = speed sensor
I have checked continuity between ecu plug b10 -to vss and all go it's getting continuity ,
I also check continuity from cluster speed wire to ecu all good as well ,
Have replaced clusters 2 of them still nothing
Checked voltage at connector of speed sensor
Black wire =ground
Black with white line 11.50-12volts
Orange / signal ..4.5volts
All with key in run position- when checking voltage

Still nothing Iam honestly stumped any input would help
Also ran a dummy wire just to be in safe side /to rule out from vss to ecu / pin b10

Vss sensor is no good or the pinions on the transmission are worn

Thanks bro , I have replaced two vss sensors and. No luck still , thinking the little tiny gear in trans that spins the vss might be messed up , going to inspect with a cam tomarrow to see , I'll kepe a update

The only other possibility is green death

So after more trouble shooting today still no luck
All wires have been tested with conunity from cluster to ecu. Amd ecu to orange wire on speed sensor plug all getting signal and no breaks in wire ....... Anyone have any input

[orlando8243]

were you able to check the gear teeth?

After in depth going over everything again and checking voltage and continuity the problem has been fixed ... I ended up wiggling the connector at the vss and one wire that I was testing wasn't actually making contact on the pin in the vss sensor .... Removed and soldier the new connector in and working perfect again


Thank u again for the input
