Why did my speedometer stop working.....?
I was just driving and it just stopped working, the code Vehicle speed sensor malfunction came up..... ya think.... (also the odometer stopped as well)
anyways I check the connections, on the dash everything seemed to work. but I havent checked the fuses, or ecu end of the connections.
any other ideas?
thanks

If it threw a code(p0500) the ecu is not seeing any activity from the speed sensor,possible that a loose connection,possibly a bad speed sensor.If your speedo was not working but you did not get a DTC(diag trouble code) then I would say check your speedo head,but seeing you got a code and your speedo is not working I would check your connection at the speed sensor,and or the sensor it self for a malfunction.
