Alright, so i have been comming here with alot of questions about this car , and yet here are a few more. I had a guy come to test drive it this morning and the thing wouldn't shift, also the speedometer doesn't seem to work, although when i drove it not even 2weeks ago it drove fine and everything worked , aside from the PowerSteering which is why im selling it. So what could be the issue with it not shifting and the speedometer isn't working? Could it just be a fuse or could it be that i need to change the tranny fluid/filter?

Can someone please help me out here i need to get this pos sold within a week so id like to get this problem fixed now and get it out of here..

Check the VSS and its circuit. Without a vehicle speed input, the speedo won't work, cruise won't work, ABS should set error codes, and the trans will not shift as it normally should.

We'll the trans is pretty much shot... Checked the Tranny Fluid and it was more like a Motor Oil , but really wattery like. SO i sold the car to my Mechanic for $200 ehh broke even i suppose...
