- How the Gircuit Works
With the ignition switch in ON (ll) or START (lll),
battery voltage is supplied through fuse 15 and
the BLI(WHT and BLK/YEL wire to the vehicle
speed sensor (VSS). The sensor is grounded by
the BLK wire to G1 01 . The speedometer and
other control units in the circuit supply about 5
volts to the BLU/WHT wire. The vehicle soeed
sensor (VSS) intermittently grounds the
BLUMHT wire which generates a pulsed signal
in it. The number of pulses per minute
increases/decreasos with the soeed of the car.
Reter to th€ Service Manual (Section 23, Electrical)
