It's the VSS.  You are lucky.  Cruise doesn't work when speedo doesn't work = VSS problem. Cruise works even when speedo is not working = speedo problem.  On mine the cruise works even when the speedo doesn't, which means there is something wrong internaly with the speedo.  That means I have to pull the speedo and send it to a speedo shop.  < Message edited by 00AccordLX5spd -- 1/17/2008 11:50:51 AM > _____________________________ 2000 Accord LX Sedan F23A1 5spd -Short Shift Adapter -eBay SRI w/ K&N 1995 Accord V6 Sedan AT - AKA "the money pit" 1991 Mustang LX 5.0 Convertible - my daily driver all through college - now sits in my dad''s garage - needs a little TLC (in reply to 9accord5) Post #: 8
