VSS - cant get mine to work

Post by veecee »

the last little bit of electronics that wont work in my s13 with sr20det conversion is the speed sensor!

the one on the gearbox that gives the speedo its readout.

any ideas?

i've plugged it in both ways - i.e. green wire to green wire, and black to black, and then vice versa too. no speed registering on the dash!
