ok here's my problem i get a code 17 like 10 minutes of driving. i replaced the sensor on the tranny and in the cluster. i even replaced my ecu. my speedo is working and i even greased up the cable. and when after a long time of driving like about 20-40 minutes of driving car feels like its going to die out and sometimes it would die out when i'm at idle and i need to keep my revs up so that it won't die out. anyone got any advice on how to fix my problem thanks in advance.

 

can anyone help me?

 

Your wiring is fucked then. The signal from the cluster is not reaching your ECU. Cable driven clusters send the signal rather then the VSS.

IT shouldn't cause any driving problems...you have other issues too.

 

still getting a code 17. is this a common problem for most cable driven cars when converting to obd-1? i now someone out there has figured out a way to fix this problem.

Ummm no...means your conversion is wrong. I did my conversion and I never had a Code 17 happen until my cable snapped. I replaced the cable and it went away.

The reason your engine is running like **** is do to a bad OBD1 conversion. I hope you made a plug and play harness and didnt cut your factory one.

i got a rywire harness. everything worked fine when i was obd-0 and when i switched to obd-1 then i had this problem. car don't run like crap no more it was a vacuum leak but i still have the code 17. i even tried switching another ecu but still get a code 17.
