Speedometer not working in my 98 Honda Civic lx
Hi I have a 98 Honda Civic lx I have replaced the speed censor in the transmission and also replaced the fuses under the dash board and the speed censor is still not working what else could be causing it not to work ?

If there's no signal from the sensor, the CEL should come on with the VSS code. If the CEL stays off it is likely the sensor is OK but the speedometer head is not working. Also note if the odometer turns properly or not.
If it does seem to be no signal from the sensor, make sure to inspect / repair the wires on the back of the engine (so called "Fuse 15 problem"). Also check the sensor plug for corrosion or damage.

The code is P0500 Vehicle Speed Sensor A
how do I replace that ? I thought that's what I was replacing in the transmission .

Start by checking the VSS connector/pins for corrosion (very common problem).
Also answer/address this point:
