'93 Accord SE Speedometer Problem
 
Recently the speedometer on our old Accord starting registering about 15-20 mph lower than actual speed. I've looked at a parts list and found a speed sensor. Is that the likely cause?

The last time I dealt with a speed sensor problem was on a 1950 Ford Custom about 50 years ago. Back then there was a little plastic gear that went into the tranny. Different number of teeth would cause the speedo needle to show faster or slower. I expect things are quite different now.

Is the speed sensor replacement something and old grey-haired geezer can get to and change? From the parts list, I couldn't tell where the assembly is located. Can anyone point me to a good diagram that will show where to find the unit that contains the speed sensor?

TIA

Welcome to the forum, I would suggest talking to a transmission tech they can most likely help with the speedo problem,coming from another geezer sir.
