Today i was driving to work and my speedometer suddenly read 0mph. I did a little trouble shooting of my own and pulled the speed sensor of the transfer case and it looks fine. i checked connections and fuses and all look fine. then i tried the 4x4 and it didnt work either, it worked before the speedometer quit. what is a problem that would make both the 4x4 and speedometer quit? I think it is electrical but im not sure. Any help would be greatly appreciated, this is my work truck and i need everything to work. Thank you very much for any help!

Which VSS did you check? Also, how did you check it? Finally, are you getting power to the 4wd actuator on the side of the transfer case?

Let me know.
