check all your fuses and the harness behind the fuse box on the driver side..if you unplug the harness a lot of stuff won't work..maybe there's a loose wire in there or something..

Speed sensor in the tranny is a good place to start. Get a manual if you don't have one already, its pretty easy to replace. I bet there are some people on here that have used working ones too.

if your odometer doesn't work, or it isn'tworking correctly, its probably your speed sensor. do a search for speed sensor or vss and you'll probably come up with some things that will help.

Having Problems? Heres my Three step solution to anything 2gnt related.
Step 1: Put down everything in your hands.
Step 2: Grab a lucky strike, Smoke it.
Step 3: Walk to the fridge, double fist some keystone ice, sit down in the shade, drink one beer, finish cigarette, drink other beer, roll a joint, smoke it, walk back to your problem, and in about 5 minutes the solution will come to you.
If not. Go here: here

If still nothing, your trying to hard. Start over at step 1.

My speedometer dropped to 0 while going about 55. It was my output speed sensor. The car would also stall when I stopped tho, and I was in limp mode. I am AT tho, so maybe it's different for mtx.
