I have a 99 Cherokee sport. Originally 2wd. I did a 4x4 swap. Had the tranny rebuilt and then had a transfer case from a 91 (I think a 91) rebuilt and put in. They had to mix and match speed sensors til they had one that fit but had the right wire setup. Ever since then I have had this code. I've read that if you drive under 15 mph the code won't come on. I'm up for an inspection this month. I either have to drive it below 15 mph for 50 miles or come up with another solution I really would like to get this code off. It drives fine and speedometer works correctly. HELP PLEASE!

Sounds like the wrong Output Speed Sensor installed or it was wired wrong.
