    VSS location on a 97 Honda Accord V6
    I have traversed the internet and even have a HONDA manual but it only shows a picture of the location of the VSS on the 4 Cylinder. Where is the VSS located on a 6-Cylinder.

    The problem started 2 years ago with my tacometer jumping from 0 to where it would normally be. Then eventually it stopped working all together. I got an emissions test and it revealed codes for EGR and O2 sensor, but my mechanic thinks its not either - rather the VSS based on the earlier tacometer issue.


    Does anyone know where its located and can you get me a picture?


    Thanks

    4 cylinder or 6 cylinder, the VSS (Vehicle Speed Sensor) is mounted on the transaxle, but the function of that sensor is to show vehicle speed shown on the speedometer.
    The tachometer on the 6 cyl gets it's signal from the ignition coil. Have your mechanic look at the coil and the wiring harness.
