Did my swap I keep throwing vss code but my speedo works when the code comes up any thoughts
Vss
- Thread starter 604ACCORD

If the speedo works and youre getting a code then the ECU is most likely not getting the signal. My car has a chipped p28 with launch control and it wouldnt disengage. I couldnt figure out why because my speedo worked. Ended up figuring out that the ECU had no idea I was moving, once I hooked it up it worked. If you switched ECU's the pinouts might be different. What motor , ECU and CG do you currently have? Also is it auto or manual.

The pins should be right if the cluster is getting signal. Theres a 12 v, a ground and the sig wire which should be blue and white. Check the ecu pin for the signal. What you can do is take the VSS out of the trans and spin the gear. You can get the voltage to spike and see if the ECU pin is getting voltage. If not then theres the issue. If there is an issue with the VSS itself VTEC wouldnt engage and it would be jumping all over on the cluster. Especially when you start it, it will jump to like 40 and then just fall.

I kinds noticed the speedo won't work or it seemed it won't until it I'm rolling then it jumps up
It does work just seems at very low speed like under 20km

Theres a short in the ground or signal wire, try running a new set of wires, one to a black and yellow wire, one to any ground and one to the blue and white VSS signal wire and see if that fixes it. You dont have to get crazy and cut stuff up just peel a little back unless you want to check the wires all the way from the vss to the ECU.

A plug on the ecu? Cuz the c plug on ecu has the vss it's number 23
