Check as follows:

1. Are there any battery (SPN 168 FMI any) or Controller Area Network (CAN) (625 FMI any) faults present?

1.1. Yes; repair those faults first.

1.2. No; Go to step 2.

2. Has the Common Powertrain Controller (CPC) been recently reprogrammed?

2.1. Yes; ensure the VSS parameters are configured correctly for the vehicle application, if OK Go to step 3.

2.2. No; Go to step 3.

3. Is the VSS hardwired or transmitted via J1939?

3.1. Hardwired; Go to step 4.

3.2. J1939; refer to the Application and Installation Manual for the correct parameter configuration, if configuration is correct refer to Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) material for J1939 VSS troubleshooting.

4. Disconnect the VSS harness connector, refer to OEM literature for location.

5. Inspect the VSS harness connector for bent, spread or corroded pins.

5.1. If pin damage is found, repair as necessary.

5.2. If no pin damage is found, Go to step 6.

6. Disconnect CPC connector #3.

7. Measure the resistance between CPC connector #3 pins 13 and 14.

7.1. If resistance is less than 1K ohms, repair short between CPC connector #3 pins 13 and 14 and the VSS connector.

7.2. If the resistance is greater than 1K ohms, Go to step 8.

8. Measure the resistance between CPC connector #3 pin 13 and the VSS+ harness connection.

8.1. If resistance is greater than 1K ohms, repair wire between CPC connector #3 pin 13 and the VSS+ harness connection.

8.2. If the resistance is greater than 1K ohms, Go to step 9.

9. Measure the resistance between CPC connector #3 pin 14 and the VSS- harness connection.

9.1. If resistance is greater than 10 ohms, repair wire between CPC connector #3 pin 14 and the VSS- harness connection.

9.2. If the resistance is greater than 1K ohms, refer to OEM literature for VSS sensor diagnostics.
