Thanks for the kind words! Cool to know we have a fan so far away!

Would be interested to hear about ways to deal with different tire sizes and the speedo with swaps.

If you added in a VSSPro with our PnP kit, it could be calibrated for this issue. iwireusa.com/products/vss-pro-with-iwire-plug-and-play-wiring-harness?_pos=1&_sid=e49d5a8e3&_ss=r

I have an '09 Impreza (no VSS in trans) and recently got a P0500 code for VSS circuit malfunction. Speedo goes crazy after cruising a bit on the highway and can't rev past 4k. However, if I just stick to city driving for 1-2 days, the codee eventually goes away. How could I diagnose which ABS wheel speed sensor is giving me issues?

Thanks for reaching out. Unfortunately we do not have the specific diagnostic procedure for your vehicle but if you reach out to your local dealership, they may provide you with this information.

Hi Brian. I see this was a newer post so I am using it to ask you a question If I could. Can I put heads off an 08 2.5 sohc on a 05 sohc and use all 08 top end and put it in the 08? Thank you Randy

Great video. Quick dumbass question I i'm running a wrx engine porsche gearbox combo in a vw bug. I have heard of people using an aftermarket VSS/pulse generator next to the bolts on the cv joints, could I simply run the wires to both the ecu and speedometer ? Cheers

Depends on the year and model ECU and Transmission. I'd recommend emailing this question to us since we need more info to answer it properly. Our email is info@iwireusa.com

I have a P0500 code with my 2006 Legacy 5MT. but doesn't have the sensor on transmission. Would that indicate a wheel speed sensor?

It would suggest that is the case, yes.

What if I'm going back, putting an older transmission on a newer car?

The vehicle speed signal is sent to the ECU/Cluster via right front hub.

You would need to track down the wiring diagrams to see which wire handles the vehicle speed output.

Brother, can these sensors cause transmission problems on a cvt transmission...and cause the "at oil temp" to flash on the dash

It's certainly possible.

Hi I have a 97 Impreza transmission in a 99 Impreza all-wheel. My question is do I have to swap the wire harness, ecu, & speed sensor? Thank you in advance

Since the gauge cluster determines the speed sensor type, you do not need to do any wiring. Just swap the old vehicle speed sensor into the new transmission.

I've two Subaru's, both model year 1998. Fozzy and Lecy. They both manual trans, and have this 2 wire sensor. But how do you easily remove them? Its extremely hard to get a key/tool on it. The "Nut" is very Narrow, and i troed a lot of things but nothing seems to grip on it.. It has the little metal pin sticking into the transmission, a nut shape , and the round metal/plastic body housing, and the two wires coming out. The only way, up to now, it twist on the round housing and hope it brakes loose without damaging the sensor. So, it there a special tool/trick for removing this sensor?

Unfortunately, I don't have a good answer for that since we don't remove a ton of these given we are doing the wiring part more than the mechanical bits.

I have p0500 code but my speedo and cruise control are working fine. I am also in limp mode, won't go pass 4k rpm. Should I replace the sensor?

There are many reasons for this. You may need to contact a local shop to diagnose this issue.

I bought a 2007 forester (originally auto) that was swapped with a 2008 legacy manual trans. The previous owner left the 3 pin speed sensor unplugged, and the only other connector that’s unplugged and near that sensor is a 2 pin connector. Is my 2007 auto supposed to have a 2 pin or 3 pin originally?

Hello, your 2007 Forester originally came with a 3 pin VSS Connector. It will look like this for the plug side - iwireusa.com/products/vehicle-speed-sensor-vss-plug-a You may need (or already have) a VSSPro iwireusa.com/products/vss-pro-with-iwire-plug-and-play-wiring-harness?_pos=1&_sid=8c6afea3f&_ss=r
