Hello All,

I recently had my AX-15 rebuilt. I slapped that puppy in and she runs pretty good now. I'm having 2 problems though.

#1 My speedometer no longer works. I think the censor might have been damaged during the rebuild, but not sure how to check to see if that is the problem. All of my other instruments work well so I know it can't be a fuse problem.

#2 whenever I slow down to a stop the car wants to turn off. The car sat for about a week in my backyard and never had that problem before the rebuild. I'm gonna start by changing the fuel filter and see if that may be the problem, next maybe change my distributor cap and wires.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated and Happy Thanksgiving to you all!

Cheers
Steve

 

theres agood chance its going to straighten out your probs

 

Did you remove the VSS and speedo gear during the rebuild??

 

Thanks for the quick reply.

I didn't rebuild the tranny myself. Maybe I should call the mechanic that rebuilt it and ask him. All the censors are on the tranny now. I even disconnected them and reconnected back to make sure they had good contact.

 

Well it wouldnt really be a sensor problem if they pulled the speedo gear out.. Look under where your VSS is located there should be some numbers on the attachment housing..(Part that goes into transfer case) youll see a fork that holds it in place.. If it is not calibrated with the right tooth count, either A your gear is worn to a nub or B its not connecting with your drive gear.

 

My Jeep is a 2WD, but it shoudn't be too different should it?

 

Then perfect which trans do you have?? Im doing my speedo gear right now since i dont have a speedometer.. It will be on the driver side of trans. on the tail housing.. Its black and looks like its poping out.. I had a pic but cant find it..

 

I have an 1992 2WD AX-15. I figured that's what it could be. I'll take a look at it when I get outta work. I'll let you all know soon. thanks!

 

Did you ever get this figured out?
