Speedometer Problem Question
 
Hey Guys!

The question is...my speedo a couple days ago all of a sudden started bouncing back and forth about 10mph's at a time. it goes down from the actual speed. and if this helps i cant use the cruise control it kicks out when it bounces down. thank you

Check the connector for the speed sensor on top of the rear axle. Could be loose or corroded also could be a bad sensor.

Tim is damn good and he's got a quick trigger finger!!! :-X01Ripping through the forums like nobodies business!!! YeeeeHaaaa!!! (I should never say that I'm from Ma.... :-missingt)

AND yes... It's probably VSS or connection leading to it. If you getting one from autozone or similar place, it's called a RABS (Rear anti-lock brake sensor) they'll give you the wrong part if you ask for VSS
