JUMPING SPEEDOMETER (again)
So a few months ago I had an issue with my speedometer. (1996 B2500 cargo van)It was jumping all over the place. I replaced the VSS (vehicle speed sensor) and everything was fine. Until today. It started jumping around again. The shifting issue with before hasnt started back up again though. What could be causing this? Anyone have an idea? I am stumped. Thanks for any help you have!!

What ya drivin?
Think I would find someone with a scanner, that can read data, and see if the PCM is getting a good VSS signal.... that will tell you if it is the sensor that is the problem, or the speedo itself. Need to know more about what you drive before I can get much further.

Check and clean the connections at the VSS, see if that helps. If not, physically remove it from the trans, and have a look at the gear, make sure it doesn't have any unusual wear. (check the drive gear on the trans output shaft too.) Make sure the part of the gear that actually drives the VSS isn't bunged up.... give it a spin while you have it out, and make sure it turns freely....

If this isnt the issue, what could it be?

i read the PCM is located on the firewall directly above the a/c compressor. I have no idea where the a/c comp[ressor is though. hahaha
