I will remove and clean these 4 wheel speed sensors but sounds like many are corroded into place and damaged when removed.

I think i would start by inspecting the harness for possible rodant damage.

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.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My 2000 996 the speedometer needle does not move as I accelerate, odometer does not count and I have brake light illuminated all with vehicle speed sensor fault code. Turning a tight turn and accelerating the car jerks like fuel is being cut out very briefly. Internet research I am not finding where this speed sensor is located. I see each wheel has a speed sensor and quick visual inspection all look good. Is the vehicle speed sensor the 4 wheel speed sensors or another sensor? I will remove and clean these 4 wheel speed sensors but sounds like many are corroded into place and damaged when removed. It would be nice to narrow this down before I start potentially breaking wheel speed sensors. Any ideas or direction?

POST 2Original post

A good scsnner wil determine which sensor is not reading but it sounds like all of yours r dead. I think i would start by inspecting the harness for possible rodant damage. Its very strange that all 4 sensors dropped out at once.

POST 3Original post

Yes, the wheel speed sensors are the vehicle speed sensors. You more than likely have just one that failed, or the harness connector for it and the brake wear sensor is breaking apart with age. 996/986 need to see all 4 to calculate.
