whats wrong with my car. need some input
well recently my speedometer just quit working on me. i have swap out the vss and bought a new gauge cluster and it still didn't work. now i'm lost as to what else can cause the speedometer to stop working. i have a ls/v in the car if that helps.

so your positive you replaced fuse #15??? hrmmm.. then like 97ej6dx stated.. your speedo plug or vss plug may be malfunctioning.. try cleaning it or checking the wires

mine started doing that.. but me its the cluster, i hit the cluster and it comes back on lol i have a new cluster though.. did you replace the vss sensor with a new or a used one? chances can be that its also bad if thats your problem, unlikely but feasible...

well i swapped the vss from my brother's b20 and it didn't work and when i threw his back into his car it works so i'm assuming it's not the vss unless it's the harness.

check inside the plug if water got in there. This happened to me 2 times last week with all the damn rain. Water got in the plug and just grounded all the terminals together reading 0 all the time.
