I did a quick search and found nothing close to my problem. Then again it was a quick search. Anyway, here is my problem,

I just got my truck today (finally) and I go to take it for a spin. Come to find out, the speedo doesnt work. All the other guages work though. So I had come to the conclusion that a wire came loose on the cluster, so I plugged in my handy-dandy scangauge to see if that would read it. And yep, you guessed it, no worky-worky. So is there something I overlooked? I am not a car guy in any way. I just know how to drive them and fix little problems that require no more than WD-40 and chewing gum.

Oh, and does anyone know how to turn on the dad-gum fog lights? I cant find a switch anywhere.

Thanks

 

coulda broke the speed senser i belive you eather have one in the tranny or front axle if its a 4x4

 

Its a 2wd. And how much would one of those run for?

 

i couldent tell you ive never had to replace mine

 

How bout the fog lights? :P

 

there should be a switch on your radio bezel

 

Huh? Such big words.....

 

Dome light work?

 

I dont even know if I have one.

 

Look up?

There is a thing called a radio bezel, I dont really know the location of this one, but it shoud be near your radio...

 

Nope. I didnt see that button. But I know I have fogs on it. I tried high beams to see if that was it, nope.

 

actualy i dont think your gana have a fog light switch that looks like a 01 bumper on a 99 i dont think your truck came with fog lights someone just put a newer bumper on your truck

 

I think that might be it. He said he got a new bumper on it. And I just looked on the "radio bezel" and only saw 2 12v outs.

 

yea your truck didnt come with fogs just that bumper did to get fogs your gana have to run your own wiring to them and all that fun stuff

 

lol. Ill wait to do all that good stuff when I find me a roll bar and mount some lights. But first I must get a 3" bl so the 31s stop rubbing when I turn in reverse

 

Dumb question. Have you checked the fuse? Don't know about on the Edge. But on my 2002 XLT 3.0 it's fuse #10

 

For 98~00, the raw VSS signal comes from a small ABS sensor on top of the rear differential. It is a $20 part and not hard to replace.

You can also open the large square electrical connector under the truck directly below the driver seat. One center bolt holds it together. This connector has a habit of filling with water causing the terminals inside to corrode.

Chances are about 99% that your dead speedo was caused by one of those two.
