Okay i keep getting code 17 after like 10 minutes of driving in the day and 20 at night? It wont come on when i start the car but eventually does. When i put another tranny in, my friend said that the insides of the speedo cable came out but i looked and the cable looks fine so i dont think he knew what he was saying. When i put it in the tranny and clip it in it still doesn't work and i still get a code 17? What can i do and is it hard to remove the gauge cluster to put a new cable in? What does the code 17 detect!? Thanks, Jim

 

Also is the clip that holds the speedometer cable in place neccesary or could you rig something up to just hold it in place?

 

Code 17-Vehicle Speed Sensor
Code 20-Electronic Load Detector

Not sure about the cable though.

 

i have the same exact problem when i first turn the car on it wont go on exept after driving a bit. im going to buy a new speeds sensor becasue i think thats what the problem is. does yer speedometer jump up some times then go back to 0?

 

Na, i have never seen it work since we replaced the motor. It doesn't move at all.
