Check engine
i was driving in the show when i noticed my check engine light came on. and then my gauges started flashing and then my speedometer just died. it would randomly jump when i shifted, but when i started the car today its stay at zero and the check engine light stays on. the tach still works though. anyone have any ideas how to fix it?

Re: Check engine
It is just to the left of the starter, it is a 3 pin plug that goes straight down and connects to the sensor that is bolted to the transmission. It is hard to miss. Its the big gray one right next to the starter...

Re: Check engine
Since the CEL is on...why dont you pull codes and see what the code is? Being a tech for enough years you usually use the computer of the car to help diagnose CEL/ABS/SRS etc faults. And did you actually remove the sensor and test it with a voltmeter? Or just make sure it was plugged in?
