Ok...so I plan to start troubleshooting this weekend. I need our backup car running!!
I plan is to fix speedo problem and see what goes from there. Problem is intermittent...and speedo working makes bucking go away...so problems appear to be related.
1. Run torque app to see if speedo works in app.
A. If speedo works in torque app, problem is not speed sensor. ( speedcal is involved)
B. If speedo does not work in torque app problem is speed sensor...done.
2. Check power to speedcal.
A. If power (traction control) is not to speedcal...troubleshoot power problem ( new troubleshooting branch..whew!!)
B. If power (traction control..switched) is going to speedcal then bypass speedcal to see if speedo "works" with wrong rpm and see whether bucking goes away...now I have the perfect excuse with Wife to buy sct Steeda tuner to change gear ratio and dump speedcal altogether.
Normally I do not share or trust others with my troubleshooting process..but I am exhausted with other shit in my life....mainly getting work again (position eliminated due to late hire) as a HCPS FL teacher...****ing with this car is not "fun" anymore.
Any input, however abusive, is good input...**** it
I want to knock this out this weekend and get Kelly running again.
