Speedo in my Civic is not working. I have pulled the code and it leads to the speed sensor, DUH!! I have replaced the entire speed sensor unit on top of the tranny with ones that work but still no readings. I have taken apart the speed sensor that is in the car but to no avail. Is there a fuse that controls this and have I missed something. Thanks for the help.

 

might just be the cluster part. mine was bad, i replaced the speedo in the cluster, worked fine. just make sure to keep your original Odometer and go to DMV and have them do their crap.. or else it causes problems... (like i found out)

 

I need to try that I guess. All I know is that everything was working fine till I put the good VSS into another car with the same problem. Then I put the VSS back into the original car and BAM no workie

 

try checking the connection at the VSS on the tranny. It gets crudy after time.
Cleaning it cures 95% of the CEL 17 errors.
