I was drivin the other day and my speedometer just dropped from 60-0 and stopped working out of no where. Then I through a Check Engine light that was P 0500 - Vehicle speed sense malfunction. I thought I just broke a speedo gear or the cable but then a through that code. Since my car is a 96 I have the manual odometer adn speedo so I didn't think it was a conputer problem. Idk if i'm throwing that code just bec my car sees that my speedo ain't working or if I did have a sense fail. What do i need to fix??[/align]Thanks[/align]

Pull the sender out of the tranny and turn it over with a drill. Have a buddy watch the speedo. If it doesn't move, then you need to pull the cluster and remove the cable. If it is broke, the bottom piece may come out through the bottom, depending on the design. You shouldn't have to replace the outer housing.
