Ok guys I know I have read this before, but, can't find it in the archives. The speedo quit working along with ABS & brake light is staying on. I got no codes either. Any clue? Thanks for your help.

 

No ideas yet... Other than a fuse. But I'm sure you checked all of them.

 

could be a PCM problem...could try getting the PCM reflashed at the dodge dealer if they even do PCM's. im not talking about the ECM for the engine, but the PCM located on the passenger firewall

 

99% of the time, it's the vehicle speed sensor, located on top of the rear differential.

Yep ABS Speed Sensor located on the top of the rear differential.......easy to replace!!

i had a friends whos truck did this and think he told me it was a crank shaft snesor or something along these lines

 

Thanks Phox, I'll check the speed censor on the rear diff.

 

Went to NAPA, they are telling me that the sensor costs $329! WOAH! And, they are calling it an ABS sensor. What is it? If this is ABS, can I bypass the ABS crap? I've heard horror stories about pulling trailers with trucks equipped with rear ABS. Anyone?

 

No way, wrong part.

Found in another post:
The rear diff one is only about $36 for the sensor at the dealer.

Couldn't find a part number, but they call it the "rear wheel speed sensor (RWSS)"

See at my dealer they called mine the ABS rear speed sensor........but yeah same thing and mine was less than $40 bucks too!

Thanks guys. Appreciate the help.

 

Yep, RWSS at the dealership, $38.80. Everything works now. Thanks again for the help.
BTW, a breeze to repair.
