Speedo Sensor Stuck
Speedo Sensor Stuck
I am trying to fill my transmission after I had drained the fluid and now I have a bigger problem. The sensor is stuck in the transmission and now is broken off down to 1/4 inch of threads and the bolt tab is broken off. How the heck does this thing come out. Is it threaded into the transmission or just a straight part?

Try "lightly" tapping it with something on the side of the speedo sensor. The speedo and speedo gear are bloth plastic so over time the gear teeth may actually start to bend some. The result would be a gear that does not want to release. I've seen some pretty stuck ones, but never one that wouldn't come out with some wiggeling and maybe a tap or two.
You will obviously need a new speedo now that you've broken the mounting tab...

i had this problem a few months ago, but mine wasnt plastic, i drilled out the middle of it (its already broken anyways) and then poped a flat head under the sides to get it to pry up....it was a nightmare, ive flushed my tranny 4 times since then to make sure i dont have any metal shavings from the Speedosensor floating around inside the tranny
