I've got a 94 Accord Coupe Ex, V-tech, auto. The speedometer and odometer stop working at random times. The tachometer works normally. I want to check the Vehicle Speed Sensor,I've looked at the diagram that's postedon the web,http://images.google.com/imgres?imgu...3D10%26hl%3Den

but I still can't find it. Is it underneath something?

 

Does your cruise control stop working when the speedometer is failing? If the cruise control works, then the VSS is fine. Also a failing VSS will cause your check engine and D4 lights to come on.

The VSS is on top of the transmission. There is an online site that shows you how to retrieve error codes. It also has the shop manual on there. That thread is on the top of the DIY section under ACC 5th gen.

 

Cruise works, no error lights. Guess I need a new speedometer head, which I believewould tarnish my title?I'm trying to sell the car - maybe it's bestto justsell it as is.

 

You can pull out the speedometer and send it to a speedometer repair shop. I had a similar problem with mine, and they fixed the problem. It was about $120 to get it done. I'm not sure what that shop did to fix it. It could be screwed up solder joints for all I know. I found the shop by doing a google search.

 

You can also order a used one as a last option, does your state require you to registar the milage during a safety inspection or tag renewal time.

 

it will not tarnish your title at all..
if installing a new speedo head , it will come with a sticker, you put the actual miles as they are now,, attach the sticker by the car door striker ( by the color tag) ,, when it is time to renew the title there is a box that says ( not actual miles ) you just chk that one ,, it is not a big deal, i have replaced a few speedo heads and customers never had any issues with titles afterward

 

Will from my old prelude it was on top of the tranny. sorrie no pix.
