Need to splice into my 1996 jeep cherokee speed sensor for my new gps. And have no idea wear it is.

 

i thought gps told you how fast you were going using corrditnets(i spelt that so wrong spell check cant fix it) and fancy stuff

 

GPS is does work from coordinates -> GPS= global positioning sensor. The Garmins and TomToms give you the speed based upon how fast you move from coordinate to coordinate.

 

I got a jvc kd-nx5000. And was told gps would not calerbrate unless hooked to speed sensor

 

Ah, yes... that is a little more than just a GPS isn't it?

Okay, need year, exact model (Cherokee, Grand Cherokee, Laredo or Limited), and then engine.

 

1996 jeep cherokee classic 5 speed 4.0.

 

The speed sensor is on the wheel. Are you sure it isn't saying into the speedometer wire? Years ago, when dashes were not digital, we had to bug into the speedometer cable itself. But I cannot fathom that you need to run a wire to your wheel. You should be able to use a wire to the speedometer gauge.

Does anyone else want to jump in on this one?

 

unless you have abs you wont have speed sensors

 

How about a vss wire?
