Hey guys, i have some problem with my car. i did some burnouts and the speedometer and odometer stopped working. can someone help me? i have replaced VSS in transmission, but still the problem is there and someone suggested to check ABS sensors. i did for the rear two sensors with voltmeter, but the voltage was jumping from positive to negative when i spin the wheel. Is it possible that bad abs sensor could do this? any help would be great.

Not quite that easy. You need to take it to a dealer to have them calibrate the new sensor to the ECM in your car.
