Is the Tach working? If No, the VSS is dead then. I do not know if it is the same for your car, but the EG has like a little needle/linkage that links with the trans. If the needle in the VSS gets damaged chipped you need a new one.
Fear only comes when people are close to something...failure or success.

I believe the tachometer gets its signal from the distributor, not the VSS.Jawsiiv;121738 wrote:Is the Tach working? If No, the VSS is dead then.

This is correct a VSS has nothing to do with engine speed.SilverStreak;121747 wrote:I believe the tachometer gets its signal from the distributor, not the VSS.

Check for corrosion on the wires going to the vss. Look at the metal pins, they are sometimes prone to corrosion. I had to replace a pin on mine.....my dads car has a pin corroding as well.
