Does any one know what color and location is the VSS wire. Coad Alarm gave me org./green stripe located in the ECM but that is not accessable for me with out taking out half of the car. Maby does anyone know if it is under the dash (color/location). Thanks, Matthew

what cluster? I tryed to remove the steering colom but only saw the air bag wires (I think.) I don't really want to mess with these wires.

I am 100% lost and no one has any info at all!

I had just talked to coad alarm for the second time and they said that the WHITE/ read wire is for the 2001 ls. The 2000 LS has no readable VSS wire because the computer reads what speed all 4 wheels are doing and then does and average of that and sends that to the speed odometer. So what that said does any one have an idea on what I should do. Coad told me to use a VSS kit. - I really don't want to have to do this because it requires me to hook a magnet up to the drive train and then it will make a (fake) vss wire or something of that sort.

-Thanks Matthew
