    This explains what my car is likely going through. Mine is when the outside temperature exceeds 34degreees, the speedometer stops reading. Also when I’m on a long journey, the speedometer comes on and off making the acceleration stressful when it is off and I have to Rev high before the gear selects , while when it is on the gear selects smoothly.

    Hi, I have an automatic ‘95 Toyota Camry showing a p1705 code “direct clutch speed sensor.” A backyard mechanic friend installed an output speed sensor (the cheaper more simple one of the two available on rockauto, with two prongs, not three, and no plastic gear at the bottom which some of the other one come with). That didn’t fix the problem-it’s still throwing that same code and the shifting is a bit off sometimes with hesitation or a slight jump and the o/d light comes on and off. The speedometer seems to work fine. I can’t be sure it’s showing the right speed but it moves smoothly and consistently with acceleration and deceleration. Could I need to replace the electrical connector for the output speed sensor he installed? Or might I need to buy the (only) other speed sensor I see available which is longer, sometimes with the plastic gear on the bottom (one of these kinds mentions the speedometer which makes me think that’s not the one I need, as my speedometer seems to work fine)? Is there another speed sensor it could possibly be which isn’t available for purchase on rockauto or at parts stores i’ve called? I’m very confused about how many there are and all the different names-direct clutch speed sensor, vehicle speed sensor, transmission speed sensor, output speed sensor vs. input speed sensor (on rock auto website they don’t have any sensors mentioning input or vss or direct clutch). How can I tell which will solve the problem without having to just buy the cheaper one and hope it solves the problem?

    If your speed sensors are starting to fail will it trip a check engine light? I have been experiencing similar things described in your video and mechanic doesn’t seem to take me seriously because check engine light is not on.

    I just purchased a 2013 Nissan Marano 4 wheel drive 6 cylinder. The vehicle will not drive when I put it into drive and it will not go anywhere while it's in reverse, however when it is in. Park some push the gas pedal. And it accelerates the same with neutral, but not with reverse or drive. What would be the problem?

    Welp, I drive a 2003 Audi A4 1.8T Quattro and, it seems to be that my front left ABS Wheel Speed Sensor might need to be replaced. Odd behavior while driving, at random moments, both the ABS and ESP lights come on and Speedometer stops working. The speedometer works for a little bit then randomly stops working when the ABS and, ESP lights come on. I checked the front left ABS Wheel Speed Sensor and, it seemed fine to me. Quite dirty, no corroded wires, no splits of the wires, only thing I noticed different is that, the cover for the some areas of the wires is gone, exposing the wires. That’s all I know so far
