Replying to: doohickie (Oct 13, 2007 8:46 am) Say there Mr. Doohickie. I have a '99 Elantra with a broken speedo and the ECU reports a bad VSS as well, via my scanner. There does appear to be a mechanical cable which drives the speedo. I have checked the instrument cluster VSS out and it is ok according to my Haynes manual. You seem to be saying that the ECU drives the speedo but thats not the way it looks in this car. I am currently suspecting a bad speedo cable but haven't yet tracked down its origin although I expect to find it in the transmission. Can you verify this?
