VSS install Q: wiring

[13secondcivic]

hey guys,

three wires on the tranny VSS: yellow, blue, black. one is ground, one is 12 volt, one is signal. does the signal (i'm assuming yellow?) go to the cluster? I have the SiR cluster, and the black I assume is ground....

any help!

thanks

yup. that's what i did..i ran all three wires together through the cable speedo hole. on my siR wiring harness the colors were black, yellow, and yellow w/ white stripe. i wired them all in at the gauge cluster and it works great. just wire in the black at either ground..wire the yellow in at the power source..wire the signal in to the speed sensor. if you have any question as to which slot is which, reply to this and i'll look it up in the chart i made at home. (i'm at work now) peace

black is obviously ground..in all the gauge cluster wiring i've done, yellow is the power, but i could be wrong. when i've seen solid blue it's the tach..which is a signal.. i'd say blue is the vss signal. that's my final answer. maybe someone can verify that?

well, HASport, which was not much help on this one confused me more than anything! said trial and error....won't hurt it. I'll try blue - signal, yellow - power, and black ground.

thanks bud!

personally I like just the front bumper. I don't like the fact the side skirts cover the body so much....that's where rust is dying to start and the back bumper looks horrid....IMHO I did the front bumper and it looks great though! the whole kit is around 625.00 now plus shipping. price increase for 2002 !

I prefer the whole body kit myself, the front bumper alone throws off the lines a bit in my eyes. Vince does have a point I can see in time rust forming under the Door caps. The rear bumper is so so but continues the lines of the body kit
