    Hey guys I’m new here and wanted to take a minute to let everyone know an issue I had.
    Check engine, ABS, 4hi 4lo, no speedometer, gas gauge fluctuating. Pretty much everything that could light up and or flash was. Codes we’re saying it’s a VSS. Turns out after crawling around under it, it was a corroded, snapped in half bonding strap (ground strap) that attached from trans to chassis. $15 and 5 min later it was replaced, reset battery and good as new. Hope this saves someone like me some head scratching!!

    Good thing you found the issue and fixed it for $15. I would’ve probably paid that much in gas going to the dealer to have them look at it.
