SW1 L4-1.9L SOHC VIN 8 (1996)
SPEEDOMETER/ODOMETER CIRCUIT INOPERATIVE OR INACCURATE
The speedometer/odometer is controlled by electronics within the instrument panel cluster and by the vehicle speed signal (5000 pulses per mile)
provided by the PCM. This signal is based on the raw vehicle speed signal that the PCM receives from the vehicle speed sensor (VSS), and the tire
size information programmed into the PCM.
IMPORTANT
Do not leave the speedometer test running for an extended period of time. The odometer will accumulate mileage while this test is running.
DIAGNOSTIC AIDS

SPEEDO FEEDBACK can be accessed on the Scan tool by selecting SCANNER, ECM and then GENERAL INFORMATION.
