I just purchased a used 1990 Accord LX and the speedo is on part time. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. Also the "S" symbol on the dash blinks. I have been led to beleive that this is a speed sensor problem. One person at the local auto parts store had no idea on where it was. Another said that it was inside the tranny. I purchased the book for the car and as usual it had a bevy of great information but nothing on what I was looking for. Please fill me in on where in the heck this is and how to replace it. I know that it costs about 135 bucks, so I am open to other sudjestions as to what could be the cause of my speedo problems. Thank you in advance to whom ever for your help.
