So aparently when I was doing my tranny swap I snapped my vss

The motor is a obdo b16 with the cable vss. Kind of an odd looking unit

Since I snapped the cable, whats the easiest cheapest replacement I can swap in?

If you broke the cable -purchase a cable for your model car (regradless the motor).
If you have a 92+ you shouldn't have a cable though -wrong forum or was it not the cable that you broke?

 

Thats what I thought to, but theres more to it I guess

I broke the cable because I COULD NOT REMOVE it from the tranny, I removed the little c-clip like Ive done on other cars, and the dam thing just wouldnt yank out

So I dropped the trans wit it connected trying to be careful but it broke anyways

So, I dunno if I can even get this dam thing outta there....

What should I do?

 

i think you can use a d-series VSS.

I've never confirmed it, but I've seen people say that you can

 

But I couldnt even get the cable out of my VSS, then it snapped, what am I supposed to do?

get a new cable and speed sensor. not sure if a dseries will work but a da ls/gs/rs will

 

Maybe you didnt read the question bone, I simply removed the c lip and tried to pull the vss cable out, didnt budge so I left it, dropped the tranny with it connected and it snapped

I can probably just undo the bolt on the VSS unit thing and the whole unit comes out doesnt it?&gt;

 

The D-series cable VSS' will work.

 

d series **** will work...

as far as removing the cable vss from the trans...I don't have one in front of me, but even though it is cable isn't there still a 10mm bolt you have to remove to take off the vss housing from the trans?...sorry if I'm wrong on that...I'll go look in storage and see if I have any cable trans kicking around and see how to remove the cable/housing

but now my question is this...since you were doing a transmission "swap" why are worried about getting the cable out of the transmission that came out of the car? aren't you putting a different one back in? if so...you probably need just the cable right?
