What are you reading it with? Only specific readers will read our tranny's, AE is one of them. If you describe your erratic shifting it might be helpful to the guy who really knows these tranny's.

A VSS code can be set by a bad VSS, a damaged wire between the VSS and the PCM, or a problem with the ring gear. It is one of those three.
