hii there i am new to this forum. i recently picked up a 91 legacy wagon awd 5 speed. i recently checked my cel codes and have found code 33 which is for the vehilcle speed sensor. i have cleared the codes and rechecked to find the code is still there. my speedo is working fine but not my cruise control. any help would be appreciated

You may need to get a new VSS. It is in the instrument cluster. You could swap whole clusters, or just the VSS.

 

Be aware, if you swap clusters, and the new one has lower miles, you must notify anyone you sell it to. You may want to check with you're DMV. If you're title already says Odometer exempt then don't worry about it.

thanks for your reply. i have replaced the cluster. thils vehicle was a victim of vandalism. all glass lights and instrumentation was broken. the cluster that i replaced the original with is from an auto transmission vehicle due to the unavailability of one from a five speed in my local wrecking yards. will the vss from an auto trans be different than a 5 speed?

 

thanks

also. will a cel 33 prevent the cruise control from working? they would seem to be related.

thanks

Yes, definately.

 

 

as far as the Auto V Manual question. I wouldn't think it would make a difference. But there may be a wiring difference that is not plug and play. You need to test the VSS, and if it outputs, then work on whether the VSS is connected to the ECU.
