I have about 290000 on this car. the Speedo started acting erratic the last 2 weeks then stopped working completely. The d4 light started flashing but the CEL never came on until now. I shorted out the blue connecter and the CEL light gave a code of 17. The d4 flashed 4 times quickly. I found out the code 17 is the vss sensor so I have ordered one of those but wasn’t for sure if code 4 that d4 is giving was a different issue. is there a separate set of trouble codes for the d4 light? Any help on this would be appreciated.

 

I dunno on an auto but the odomiter and speedo not working is a definet sign of a bad VSS.....fix that and I'll bet a dollar the D4 light will go away..oh congrats on 290xxx miles thats effin bad ***.....

 

thanks. im very proud of it. the only major work i have had to do on it is a new air cond system last year. and the miles are prob really close to 295000 since the odom hasnt been working!

 

CEL + Speedo/Odo + no cruise = VSS

Speedo/Odo = Cluster

ur an idiot.....why would his tranny be fooked???

 

it might not be "phucked" however the d4 light tends to indicate a fault in one or multiple circuits of the trans.

 

The Code 17 from the Check Engine Light, coupled with the Code 4 from the D4 light generally is the VSS. As previously mentioned, replacing the VSS should resolve the problem.

Refer to link below, and select VSS.
