My daughter has a 96 Accord LX that has been diagnosed as having a bad vss. I have ordered the replacement which will arrive later today. My problem is that I don't know exactly where it is located. My understanding is that it is on the transmission, but after reading some of the forum posts, it sounds as if there are actually two sensors? Her speedometer works, but the car will not shift gears and will slip out of gear intermittenly. Can someone give me some advice please?

 

I believe that the 96 accord has only one vehicle speed sensor. I have a 96 also and it is located on the backside of the transmission just below where the lower coolant hose connects to the engine.

 

Thanks for the reply!

 

Did the vss fix it? Just wondering if you speedo is working how the vss could effect shifting and popping out of gear?

 

good luck,the vss will not cause the shifting problems you are having
