I Donated broknindarkagain Posted December 26, 2012 I Donated Share Posted December 26, 2012 Then fix that problem. If its an automatic, there are two speed sensors on the transmission. -broknindarkagain My Current Project - Click Here COME AND TAKE IT "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."

RHDsubaru Posted December 26, 2012 Author Share Posted December 26, 2012 Its a right hand drive. Is it possible that one speed sensor has been bad for 2.5 years and the other give out also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Donated broknindarkagain Posted December 27, 2012 I Donated Share Posted December 27, 2012 johnegg might be the person to ask. I haven't worked with many automatics, but johnegg knows nearly everything about them. -broknindarkagain My Current Project - Click Here COME AND TAKE IT "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."

johnegg Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 if you replaced the front speed sensor, has the CEL gone out?? does your speedo work yet? if no speedo, then the speed sensor info is not getting to the speedo. IF IF IF the problem is caused by the speed sensor, until the speedo works, the AWD will never work. of course, the speedo could be bad too. was the speed sensor new, used, known good? check the wires going to the sensor.
