Where is the vehicle speed sensor on a 1989 acura integra and how would you test it when ECU delivers code 17?

The vehicle speed sensor (VSS) on a 1989 Acura Integra is located on the transmission, near the speedometer cable. To test the VSS when the ECU delivers code 17, follow these steps:

1. Disconnect the electrical connector from the VSS.

2. Connect a voltmeter between the VSS signal terminal and ground.

3. Start the engine and turn on the ignition.

4. The voltmeter should read a fluctuating voltage between 0 and 5 volts.

5. If the voltmeter does not read a fluctuating voltage, the VSS is faulty and needs to be replaced.

Here are some additional tips for testing the VSS:

* Make sure that the speedometer cable is properly connected to the VSS.

* Check the wiring between the VSS and the ECU for any damage or loose connections.

* If the VSS is still not working properly, you may need to have the ECU tested.
