That code means the PCM isn't seeing a good vehicle speed signal. It could be a wiring issue between the PCM and the VSS.

Thanks Mark... Not sure what it is, but since I'm not wearing a jumpsuit with a mechanic badge sewed to it, no matter what i say/relate to him, he just refuses to listen. Even told him that, in a sense, the gentleman that created the trans, is throwing his professional opinion/recommendation.. He still sticking to the ABS module creating everything..... I'm over it..

Semi Conclusion

Jackstraw is definitely onto something👍..
. So, in our quest to pick up my truck in Yuma, AZ yesterday, on the way home, since e took hwy8, we both thought the same thing....HOLTSVILLE! Detoured the 4 miles and sure enough, the legend was there and without a thought, offered up some of his time. Sat down with him and my buddy explained the issue at hand... With a lot of "game" being spat out, its the ABS module not corresponding with "feeds" to the PCM..(in so many words). So, for shiats, were going to install the original abs today, clear the code and see what happens. Gotta say, John is one cool dude👍
