I have a 1996 Legacy Outback wagon 2.2L with a mere 276K on it. Today, after a run to the grocery store the speedometer quit working. I have reset the codes, checked the connections and took it for a spin. It ran fine, but the check engine light came on again. Which may be a good thing if it is the VSS1 located on the transaxle. A couple of questions: First, how do I remove the speed sensor from the trans? Looks like a 17mm open end could do it. I do have a spare. And second, how difficult is it to get to the VSS2 located behind the instrument cluster?
Thanks in advance,
Bill
