Speedo Gear in Transmission

[nate97GSX]

This is the 4th transmission in this car and this time the gear had chewed up the original speed sensor, so they installed the one from mine, and now the speedometer doesn't work.WTF It was fine for the first 400 miles. Car hasn't seen over 5,000 rpms since tranny replacement. Can you take the gear out of the trans without removing the whole thing. Any one else have this issue?

you can remove the nylon gear with the speedo sensor, but if the gear that drives it is damaged, I believe that is attached to the differential and would require you to take apart the transmission to get to.

Is the nylon gear attached to the speedo sensor, or are they two separate pieces?

The nylon gear is on the sensor, there is a ring gear pressed onto the differential that is metal and spins the nylon gear. If your tranny is chewing up the sensor gear then you either have a damaged speedo gear on the diff, or something loose in the transmission that could be tearing up the nylong gear.

I am pretty sure there is nothing loose in the trans, but the gear is chewing up the sensor. I have my old trans which has less that 1k on it. I will see what I can take from that one, hope I don't have to take the trans back out.
