previous owner said he just put a new alternator on it and a new VSS sensor on it and it still isnt working right, Im guessing it is charging or the car wouldnt run right, but if im not mistaken the car will run like crap scince the ECM isnt seeing any speed coming from the VSS, im not getting a service engine soon code either. maybe the ECM is getting signal and the dash isnt? its an analog dash, do they go bad?

 

oh yeah, 3.4L DOHC 5 speed.

got the alternator gauge to work, it was the motor thing that operates the needle, the speedo still doesnt work, i replaced the dash with another dash, still doesnt work, when i key the ignition the speedo does move alittle it just doesnt operate with the car moving (IE tell me the speed im going) i was told to get a ohm meter and see if its putting out 4000 PPM or something, pulses per mile. not quiet sure on that stuff.
