speedometer cuts in and out while driving. my question is what sensor sends the speed signal to the speedometer (assuming its electric)? and where is it located?
used to have a 97 dakota, and the speedo and tach sometimes wouldint work unless you tapped on the plastic. musta been a loose connection in the dash on mine.
auto trans speed sensor on my 01 4wd is on passenger side, at the rear of the t-case. not much fluid comes out - less than a cup and just enough to make a little mess if your not sort of ready for the swap.
i'm not familiar with the sensor setup on your 95, but the later models also have a speed sensor/abs sensor in the top of the rear diff. the official name of it on most parts lookups are rear abs sensor. its sort of square shaped and sells for about $30. it also has interaction with the speedo. the one in the trans/t-case is cheaper, only about $16.
Ok guys now I'm lost the local dealer told me my 98 only had the speed sensor in the rear diff now I'm on my third one and still no speedo are you sure I have one on the Tcase because I haven't found it.
