Very helpful video, thank you for the explanation on how to fix that problem.

Thank you so much for showing all of this. It’s very helpful for first time DIY’ers. For future soldering, just hold the soldering iron against the wires you’re joining for 3-4sec to make em hot, then press the solder against where the iron meets the wires and it will melt against the iron and wick right into the hot wire in a perfect wrapper instead of hot globs sitting on cold wire

You’re welcome 👍

You CAN take that connector apart and pull the pins out and replace just the pins & wiring, or solder new wire to it that way. The pins DO come out

i have an issue with my speedometer not working (i got the same p0500 code on a code reader), and i am blowing gauge fuses. were you also blowing fuses?

Being that the sensor wasn’t technically “plugged in” so to say, was it causing any bogging while idle? I have a speed sensor code, but even when transmission is in park it still bogs very badly. I even replaced the fuel pump cause I thought maybe that was the reason

My VSS wiring is shorted out somewhere in the middle between VSS and ECU. What is the best strategy to find the short?

You helped me. I subbed you. Similar problem.

Good evening Sir, Can you please show me where the speed sensor is located on a Subaru foster 2009

Do u nw wireing of Nissan ud tracks speedometer sensor

@Eric....I did not have a blown fuse. The VSS wiring had broken (both wires) and was not connected to the VSS. Good luck !

Hi. I am struggling with the same problem. I need the exact same connector clip you show here in your video. I can’t find it anywhere. Can you please tell me where you bought yours? This video has been extremely helpful. Thank you so much for sharing.

While the connector is bad does the vehicle still track mileage internally or will the odometer pick up where it left off when it is reconnected?

Hey man do you have a email or some way of contacting you about a similar model of this Sentra?

please dont solder by this guid. You have to preheat wire and solder by heated wires not touching the iron.

You can’t cut the heat shrink tubing to fit?

I've seen a video where cleaning the ABS sensor at each wheel resolved the problem on a Toyota Solara. It may be worth a shot. kzread.info/dash/bejne/qpxms6mLirDXnM4.html I've also seen a video where it was problem in the cluster (odometer housing where there was no signal and needed a repair or replacement on a Tacoma)

oo0Spyder0oo .... if you have a scanner (if not, you can go to AutoZone and they'll do it for free) try clearing the code to see if it comes back on. If does, check the VSS wiring. A wire could be loose and not making the proper connection to the VSS. Good luck & thanks for watching!

@@beachtroll8344 Yes I have a scanner and that's what showed me the p0500 code. I just thought it wouldn't show the speedo correctly but it seems to work. I reset it once and after a few k's it's come back on, the engine warning symbol blocks the lcd readout. Also my cruise control won't activate, even though it says it's on. I suspect there's a link there as well. I'll see if the wiring is loose or something but I don't get how it relates to the cruise control. Cheers

@@beachtroll8344 If you got Rosin core solder and get an iron that gets hotter you will have better success. I’m not here to bash, but with the right tools, the job is easier. Soldering isn’t hard, set the iron on the bottom of the wire and with Rosin core solder (thin solder), touch the solder to the edge of the soldering iron and the wire… when the solder melts it will apply flux to the wire and as the wire heats up you will be able to put the solder directly on the wire and not the iron, go until the connection is full. It will flow through the wires making a great connection! You’re on the right path, but wrong solder and to weak of an iron. I run my variable iron at 42c x10 (420 degrees C), which is its max.

Your soldering technique is bad. You're supposed to use the iron to heat the copper strands, then hold the solder against the copper until it melts into the strands through and through. It's also good to "tin" the wires before hand (heat them until the solder coats all the strands of copper before you twist them together).
