The speedometer stopped working on my car and the check engine light came on. I read the codes and got a 14 which is the vehicle speed sensor. I replaced the speed sensor and reset the computer. This did not fix the problem and the check engine light came back on and is still giving a code 14. I thought it might be a wiring issue so I traced the wiring back as far as possible in the engine compartment and it is good. I don't know what to do next. Any suggestions?? Thanks.
I reset the computer by turning the screw on the computer counter clockwise all the way and waiting until the lights blinked 4 times and then turning the screw back clockwise.
Is it a common thing for the cluster to go bad? My tach still works as well as my cruise control. But the speedo and mileage doesn't. Would the cluster going bad cause a vehicle speed sensor code? Thanks for the help!

Try resetting the ecu by removing the negative cable from the battery for about 15 minutes...
Thanks. I'll test my VSS this afternoon. I replaced the insturment cluster and the new one is doing the same thing. I took my battery cable off for about 1 hour. After driving for 5 minutes with the new cluster, the check engine light came back on. My new VSS may be bad or could have been blown by a bad cluster. I hope this is the case because I really don't know what else could be wrong. I'll keep you posted.
