subie94 Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 cause after replaceing some instrument panel lights and after getting it all buttoned back up.i relized that i might not of connected the speedo cable fully.wasn't able to pull dash apart cause i was over my sisters and it had gotten dark by the time i decided to check...well i decided i'd just drive home with no speedo and about half way the CEL comes on.didn't notice the engine running any differently. so would the lack of speedo cable hooked up fully cause the light to come on? didn't know if there was some kind of sensor or something.. any comments or suggestions would be appreciated,thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sea#3 Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Yup the speed sensor #2 is in the speedo , it has probably coded up code 33 speed sensor #2 malfunction Hook up the cable , clear the code and you should be good to go SEA#3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodsWagon Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Yes. The spedo has a reed switch in it that works as the vehicle speed sensor on the manuals. It will complain if it isn't hooked up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
