I posted the other day my ABS light came on and have not found anything loose.Well tonight the speedo started going crazy, someone had asked if that had happened on the other post.So I guess that means the VSS is shot? Carl

The speedo is run off the VSS sensor in the rear differential. Replace that as a start. Then youll be looking at the two sensors on the front axle. The rear VSS sensor is cheap, and IIRC only takes one 10 mm bolt.

Did the speedo start bouncing around or just quit? There was another thread going about the speedo not working, SEL, A/C not working, and OD light blinking. I think they fixed the problem by finding some wires shorted by the A/C compressor. Let us know what the outcome is.
