Hi All,
Main question:
1) How many VSS speed sensors does my honda accord have?
2) What is the Resistance measurement for a good part?

As per another thread I checked : https://www.hondaaccordforum.com/for...failure-14227/

That my sensor while installed in car (with connector disconnected) reads 480ohms at its terminals. Autozone says 190 to 250? But my car still works fine. Its $140 bucks so I want to be sure about it.
Is there another main shaft speed sensor like the counter shaft mentioned in the picture? can you please please point me the location, I could not find one easily?

Background:
I am having some long standing issues with my idle, especially "warm/ hot idle" (NOT Cold start idle).
Exactly like the problem here: (with no solution yet posted there) https://www.hondaaccordforum.com/for...l-start-36826/

Additionally my idle does not appear to be stable when warm, keeps hunting between 400-800rpm.

Recently when I was driving on a freeway I noticed at high speeds(80mph to 100mph range, only in that speed range so far) I saw my needle acting weird.. random jumps.. So I thot of going about finding problem with my VSS.

I have since got my EGR port cleaned at a Honda dealership, repalced EGR valve. (No codes on EGR since then) . Only EVAP leak code exists.(I know why and Ill fix it later). I have NOT done the spark plug tuning to it yet.

I had previously got Random Misfire code and each cylinder misfire code(P0300 - P0305) which I cleared and did not come back ever since but I know it will come back when my car has that bad intermittent stall start situation.

I want to find an answer to this and post it here for rest of the folks as well to help myself. Please help me guys.

Accord 2000 EX coupe V6 3.0L
114000 miles. Automatic. (US)

 

Only 1 vss.

I would call a Honda dealer for the resistance specs.

Also if you have a evap leak then you most likely have a vacuum leak which is messing with your idle

 

Thanks for the reply Tek310, I was under the impression the EVAP leak was mostly emmissions related and I can take care of it later.. I did not think it can mess with my Idle.. Thanks for that.. I will look into it this weekend hopefully...

The dealer would not tell me the resistance spec for that part. They want me to come in and get it checked by a mechanic. They just lost a business. I would not go to them for anything now! Forget service. Not even to buy the part!! FOff you stinky dealers...

Anyways guys.. Here is the News:
There are 2 VSS in my Automatic 2000 Honda Accord Ex V6 Coupe. One on the Main shaft and another on the counter shaft. The one in he main shaft is a bit hidden. I also found the Resistance Range: it is 400-600 ohms. My counter shaft sensor read 490ohms. Now I have to test the main shaft one. Will update you guys.
