I have an ex automatic. Just the other day it started but the car will not shift on its own to begin with. I can shift it manually but somedays i only have 1st and 3rd. Then other days it will have 2nd and 4th. I checked the tranny fluid and its fine. Does anyone know what this could be. Thank

I'd bet that your odomoter and speedo don't work. If this is the case, it's the VSS - common prob on CB7s.

Damn your good. The speedo hasnt work since i got it. It will work every now and again. Stupid question now. Whats the VSS and how hard is it to replace.

I'm more gooder than just good.

Just get on the accord boards and buy a new/used Vehicle Speed Sensor

speed sensor probably wont fix it but the trans computer will, it starts out in like 3rd gear and slipping real bad but you can manuelly shift it and it is fine.

well i have in auto myself. does the S light pop up when you drive? same problem happened to me and my car wouldnt shift at all. you gotta replace the transmission module(think thats what its called its right next to your ecu). basic find at a junkyard for the cheap cheap. if thats not the prob then iono what is
