Hi folks, Great website!!!, My problem is : I need to lknow where the VSS signal buffer is.

According to the book it supposed to be at the right side of instrument cluster. I have even look at the passenger side of dashboard to no avail. I know where the ECM is. but the VSS signal buffer.. Is it integrated into the ECM? Please help!!!

Thanks in advance for your prompt response, I have donated. receipt ID 3681-9044-1703-6350.

Looks like The Vehicle Speed Sensor Input Buffer is located in the Instrument Cluster on the Circuit Board.

See the diagram below for location

The VSS buffer is just to the left side of the glove box. Remove the glove box and look to your left inside. It is a small white box that might be velcroed to the back side of the dash.
