Honda 1991 Accord Vehicle/transmission Speed Sensor Fix

[@kevinmanning4880]

Awesome video. I really appreciate that you went into detail to explain that the speed sensors from 1992 won't work with 1990. Thank you

I’m so glad you can get some useful information out of this! 🙏 Good luck on your project

This is the best tutorial I’ve seen on this fix 🙏

[@roverandmorerestore7266]

I only put out the best 😉

[@deepnthasouth2527]

Yesssss. Perfect video. I was GIVEN a car because the owner thought the transmission was slipping and failing. So...I noticed that yes it kinda slips but still rather good. Only sluggish if I stop and then go up a hill. I also noticed the speedometer only works sometimes. So I furthered my investigation and determined the problem was in our face the whole time. The speed sensor. It's a 98 avalon. Don't jerk yet rather surges or kinda pulls. Do I see the difference between THE TRANSMISSION slipping and something causing the tranny to slip. There is a difference

[@roverandmorerestore7266]

Did you fix it??

[@cmorea]

A dealer replaced the VSS on my ‘90 Accord and it worked, but then there was a new problem with power surges. Dealer wouldn’t admit they were responsible. A different mechanic found the problem: the dealer mechanic had pulled all those hoses going into the fuel injection housing, and put two of them back in the wrong place (transposition) Dealer said they checked the vacuum hoses. So dealers aren’t always the best, especially for older cars. I noticed all the other customers had new cars and the mechanics are used to working on them. My car was probably as old as the kid working on it.

[@roverandmorerestore7266]

Hello CS and thank you for your advice! That’s such a simple yet confusing cause to your power surges. So maybe I should check mine up at some old school mechanic shop

My car kicks when cold when putting reverse and does what you say in the video that the gears change with some kick, I have to release the pedal when it is going to shift so that the kick is not felt, do you think it could be the same?

[@roverandmorerestore7266]

@@RayoTech I think what you are describing MIGHT be more of a transmission mount /motor mount issue. These cars by nature have a small kick when shifting to any gear but more pronounced when mounts give out.

[@RayoTech]

@@roverandmorerestore7266 I don't see the broken supports, it's strange because when the car is already hot you barely feel the kick when putting reverse, also when the car is going to enter the last gear it takes a while to enter, I cleaned the selenoids. but it was not the problem, I think it is the VSS or the transmission computer since when I bought the car the sports light bulb on the dashboard was already broken as if they did it on purpose so that the car would not start flashing codes. I also see the transmission oil clean, I think I should change the transmission oil since I have never changed it, they say that it is bad for these cars to change the oil

[@roverandmorerestore7266]

Ahh I see. The mounts aren’t always visibly broken. But you can feel the jerk.mine used to make a bang noise. I’ve also heard that about the transmission oil but never changed mine,only topped off

[@JoseSandoval-ic5xe]

Hi I just recently trying to find if its my transmission and a coworker told me it could be this sensor, I own a 2011 optima its doing what you say in the beginning rpm go up but car doesn't accelerate, feels like it hesitates like transmission is slipping. Also sometimes when I let go off the gas prdal the RPM get stuck and car keeps driving as if I had cruise control on, I then step on the gas pedal and it unlocks.Did this fix your issue?? And did your car accelerate slow before this?? Thank you

[@roverandmorerestore7266]

It could very well be. This is a much more affordable part to start off instead of going straight into a trans replacement. Erratic behaviors could also be cause by faulty transmission control units. Either way a mechanic should look at it. Then decide if do it in your own
