Default flashing s light, transmision wont shift correctly

I,ve replaced the speed sensor and started up and test trip went fine. Next morning same problem was back. through this site found out how to get trouble
codes and came up with multiple codes. 1 2 3 5 7 8 14 (wow no wonder its flashing) Any help would be greatly appreciated, just bought car with the knowledge that the brakes needed done, little did I know that the rotors had to
come off the back of the hub which turned into quite the task. Any how, after all
that work this problem has now arose and I fret that I might have got took.
Thanks
Troy

Not sure if there was a question in there anywhere. You seemed to come up with your own solution with the 5spd swap. There is a lot of information on swaps in the ► 1990-2002 Accord FAQ sticky at the top of the Accord forum.

I don't think the original poster is going to reply. He only has 2 posts over the last year.

With the D4 light flashing you should be able to retrieve any diagnostic trouble codes that are stored on the ECU/TCU. Then you will be a step closer to knowing for sure if it is your speed sensor or not. Do a search for the SCS connector short, paperclip jumper trick or self diagnosis procedure if your not sure how to retrieve and read the codes.
