Default Code 17 -already searched

What's code 17? I looked through the Prelude forum and did not see anything...
Also, any advice on trouble shooting it?

CEL Code 17 is the VSS - Vehicle speed sensor

If your speedometer and/or odometer still work, try resetting the ECU.
If they do not work, replace the sensor.

hey was your car sputtering also. my prelude is throwing up the same code. it runs fine cold then when it heats up the ecu throws that code and it feels like its running off 2 cylinders. did you fix it yet? did replacing it fix the problem? i was going to replace it but the cheapest vss i could find was like 250.00. let me know man
