Look at your tranny, under where your stock airbox would be. It's the only sensor there. If you don't mind the wait (if i were in your situation, i know sure as shit i would ;-) ) i can check for you tomorrow and let you know .. i also have a 95 ..

under the hood? wow, i didn't think it was there. isn't it one of the wires coming out of the ECU harness? routing a wire under the hood seems a little far for a turbo timer. i don't think the wire is even long enough. if you could check on where it is specifically for me that'd be great. thanx DarkOne!

I thought the ECU harness was under the hood too?

It is. One second, i'll go check ..

Red with a blue stripe. (vehicle speed sensor wire)

You'll need a longer wire, unless you can single it out of the massive bundle of wires under your dash.

Good luck, and let us know how it works out!

hey thanx alot DarkOne..........You Da Man!!! i'll go try and wire this thing and see if the auto feature starts working. i've always wanted to but i was too lazy to wire the speed sensor feature. after almost a year and a half i think it's time. (so annoying manually setting the time everytime i drive). again thanx a million. i'll report back. peace!

Darkone,

The red and blue stripe is that coming from the ECU? I need to hook up my AVC-R.

Thanks

If i had my car here, i could tell you.. unfortunately, i probably will not see her again for a long while.. if ever.

The speed sensor is located under the stock airbox (or where it was) Unplug the sensor and look at the wire color. One of them is obviously a ground, the other (the red and blue one on my 95) is the signal wire.

Take a look at yours. Every sensor wire i've ever touched has been the same color at the sensor as it is was at the ECU harness.
