I would just call pioneer back and ask them to find you the vss wire for your car, because I don't work again till friday. I've had to call them before to find it, and they can usually tell me. Just tell them you're having a rough time finding your vss(vehicle speed sensor) wire.

its the VSS wire...just whip out your DMM and start tappin wires to find it. not rocket science here, look for one that fluctuates between 5-12 volts while the wheels are spinning.

So put on cruise control and pray for the best as you're fumbling through your dash? lol

You can probably find out which wire it is online after an hour or so of research... I found mine thanks to some guy on cardomain.com that did the same thing to his truck //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
