Every now and then wehn im driving around, my spedo gauge will just start jumping around and going nuts.

What could be causing this... i have yet to pull out the VSS unit to inspect it for any damnage or wear. Nor have i tested it to see if its getting the right voltage reading.

Just looking for other reason's outside of those two possiblitys that could cause this problem.

I am running a Exedy CM flywheel and Organic clutch also.

 

mine does the same thing, I swapped it with a friends vss and it went away. I get cel #17 from time to time so I guess its just broken so Ill have to buya new one. Are all of them the same (d series trannys)??

 

Dunno i havent chekced any cel's i know i have at least one... i shoudl check tomorrow.

I just wanted to see if anyone was having any similar problems...

I had this problem recently...went to junk yard got a VSS from automatic EG civic and put it in and now my speedo works

 

Well it works... but sometimes. It will jsut start dancing, maybe i should just take the same approach as you.

And not worry about it anymore.

 

Mine does the same thing, it came to the point that speedo doesn't work on cold morning for the first few minutes after startup.

I'm gonna need one soon.

Also I've heard D-series will work on B-series is that true?

I just switch my D series y7 VSS into my 99-00 Si tranny, it did not work...... are non vtec and vtec vss's diffrenet?? I notice the round part on the si was bigger

 

I'd really like to find out.. anyone?

 

Vtec and Non Vtec and D series and Automatic VSS's are all the same. The
d-series vss's have plastic gears opposed to b-series have aluminum gears

 

my 92 d16z6 vss has aluminum gears and it wont plug up to a friends 96 dx hatch. The plug wont go in completly but his works on mine

I was talking in regards to a non vtec D-series VSS on a Vtec b-series tranny, it did not work for me

 

It could just be a broken plug. I know thats the problem with my car. The plug is missing the little tooth that holds the plug on and when ever I go and get on my car it will sorta come loose and casue my speedo to jump. So just try going down and pushing down on it and making sure its in all the way. A temp. fix that I used was to put a zip tie over the plug and hold it down. I have yet to have any sort of problem!
