Mac 2 Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I just bought the truck with this issue it has code 4-1 speed sensor engine is derated low power I replace the speed sensor 1 turn back out after bottoming out as it says the old one was plastic had a lot of oil and grease on it so the ring is not loose I repaired the oil leak and went ahead to test drive and still speedometer not working and still no power I don't have a wiring diagram to trace the problem.

Joey Mack Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 try this,,, see if the wires at the sensor are broken up stream. if that doesnt show results, the white wire at the sensor plug has the circuit printed on it... for example: VJ-1 - 22- 0.5.... that means: VECU plug number 1, pin number 22. wire size in .05.. the wire size is no biggie, but you can trace the wire using the code, and you can un-plug the VECU plug and ohm out the wire. yes you will need to make an extension wire, but its do-able. you put the DVOM on 'audible' and wiggle the wires along the harness, and listen for the ringing to stop, then you can locate the weak point in the circuit..

Joey Mack Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 on top left of the tranny, is a wide rectangular plug. that should be where the speed sensor wires are . notice VJ2 #11 and VJ2 #12... those are the wires for the sensor. jojo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
