Hey everyone, I just got a speed sensor for my car (91 240 w a 5spd swap) and now the idle usually stays around 1200 rpm's. I still have the automatic trans ecu in the car. The thing is every once in a while the idle will drop down to 700, where it should be.. And before I installed the speed sensor the car always idled fine. Any advice?

I'm gonna assume its KA and not SR. On that note, first off, did you touch anything else besides the speed sensor or knock anything loose or not put something back?

Ya its a ka, sorry for not specifying. And no, the only thing I touched was the speed sensor.

It idled fine after the swap but not after you hooked up the speed sensor?

un plug the sensor and see what it dose
pull the ecu codes for kicks, it should throw a vss code but see what else it says.
just somewhere to start looking :/
