I got a eg hatch with a Gsr swap. I just got a new speed sensor and my speedometer still doesn't work. I tried 2 sensors and 3 clusters...anyone help

Should have a check engine light on, get the code and see what it says.

I have a Gsr tranny and block...the code that CEL is throwing is 14 which is the IAT. The vtech also doesn't engage too. I think its because of the speed sensor but like i said, I got a new and it still doesn't work...is it possible that I could wire it straight to the ecu? If i could, can I get a diagram of the wiring or just how to wire it? Thanks

Illuminated CEL means no VTEC. It not engaging has nothing to do with the VSS.

mostlikely the plug that plugs into the VSS. they corrode over time. I just replaced mine and my speedo is back in action.

ok. i tried wiring the vss to the ecu and now the middle wire (yellow/blue) to power and its not sending any fuel? for it to send fuel, i need to wire it to the battery and then unplug it everytime so my battery doesn't drain out. i'll try a new plug and see how that goes too.

go to a junk yard and cut a few connectors with wires to replace the connector end on the harness along with a few inches of wire. I found mine was corroded badly and that fixed it. Theres no need to run a new wire from the vss to the ecu if you just have a bad end.

Got new connectors and it still don't work. Idk any more

cluster thats about the only thing i can see that it can be

Former User

As code 17 is not thrown, check whether the wire running between the VSS plug and cluster/speedometer is broken.

Does anyone know to speedometer pinouts on the cluster? I want to check if there is any voltage going through..

Former User

The VSS speed signal wire runs to B2 (Yel/Blu wire) in the cluster. Check for continuity (not voltage) from B2 in the cluster connector to the Yel/Wht wire terminal in the VSS connector.

Ok...I checked b2 and there is power going through. Question is, wherecan I find the other end?

Still having problems, it won't work...Idk any more...plz help

Your wiring harness may be bad. No speed sensor means no vtec!

take it apart piece by piece play with the spring clean it all as much as you can put it back together check voltage at the clip i got around 3v. very finiky sensor. I couldnt get a continuity reading but my leads were kinda broken ...
