Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Where is the speed sensor located on my 996 C2-99?

POST 2Original post

There is one on each wheel hub for the abs. Jeff

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Is all four sensors going to the Motronic and the Motronic is sending a speed signal to the speedometer ? Is it possible to see if any previous owner have manipulate the mileage by disconnecting the speed sensors?

POST 4Original post

I think the speed sensors go to the ABS unit. If one was disconnected the ABS light would go on. I have driven my car without an instrument cluster, that is one way to do it, or remove the correct wire from the back of the cluster. You can get a rough idea if something is fishy by getting the engine operating hours out of the DME with the PST2 and compare it to the miles on the odo. There is some formual which I forget but it assumes an average speed, then you look at the miles and operating hours and see if it fits with the average speed. Jeff
