VSS issue (Page 1/1)

Hello all,

I recently changed the transmission oil on my Fiero with a 4 speed Muncie I filled the oil via the VSS sensor and now my speedo is not working. I didn't know it at the time but I know now that the sensor attaches to a gear. Which didn't come up with the sensor when I pulled it off. I've driven the car a few times since the trans oil change.

Questions:
1. How can I check if the gear is still in place?
2. If the gear is found and reusable how do I install the sensor?
3. If the gear is not usable; Does anyone sell replacements and which one would I need?
4. If I can't recover the gear from the transmission will this cause problems?


Thank you all.

JM

I lost one in a tranny about 100,000 miles ago. When I changed the tranny oil some years later there were a few plastic bits in the oil.

Hello again..

My local junkyard had a fiero on hand and I was able to get a replacement sensor with a RED gear attached.


Any special instructions for installation?

Or does is just slip in?

Next time use the plug on the side.

Red was actually the correct one for my 86 GT 4 speed with 215s in the back.
