To find the vehicle speed sensor (VSS) on a 2002 Honda CR-V, you'll need to look in the engine compartment near the transmission output shaft, specifically near the top of the transaxle close to the starter. To get to it, you'll have to remove the battery and the battery tray, secured by four 10mm bolts. This component is responsible for sending transmission information to the powertrain control module, which then helps determine the appropriate gear for the transmission. If the VSS malfunctions, the check engine light may illuminate, and you may also experience issues like trouble using cruise control, erratic speedometer readings, challenges with braking and shifting, overdrive light flashing, as well as delays in shifting between gears. The typical cost for replacing the VSS in a 2002 CR-V ranges from $190 to $250, which includes both the part and labor.
