i have a 93 civic , with a reg dx hydro trans, last night , my speedo went completely dead then it came back after a minute, i was just driving down the freeway no slamming gears. my ? is wouldn't i get the code if its going bad? and also what vss's will work if i decide to change it out?

 

Could also be a bad speedometer.

 

yah i hope thats not it. thats not even fixable.

Sure it is. Just get another cluster and swap it.

 

Are you getting code 17 VSS?

 

nope as stated in first post, no code , which worrys me, hell i don't know how to swap the speedo part of the cluster, i can take my cluster in and out, thats easy.. but if i swap the speedo part from another cluster, don't i lose my mileage?? which in any case could easily be illegal

 

I heard that you can take you new(used) cluster to honda and have them adjust the mileage to match you current one.

 

this is true i had it done on my 98 coupe

 

oh for serious? ok thats works, so i can take the speedo out of any gauge cluster from 92-95 civic? also i noticed today, my miles don't record either, wouldn't that sugest that the vss is broken, because if it was just the speedo and the vss was fine, woulnd't it still calculate mileage?

 

up one last time
