I have a 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada which has 194,000 miles. I already put a used engine and a transmission (50,000 miles used). Ive had alotttt of problems with it but i got all of them pretty much fixed. My main problems I have is when I put the use transmission in the 3/2 cylinoid failed which it still drives just messes up with the shifting here and there. Now, I started driving it about a couple days ago and the speedometer was on 0mph , wouldnt not move which made the truck only dive about 5 miles an hour It almost felt as if I was in nutral and gasing but it wouldnt go any higher in speed then like 5-10mph (Ive been manually shifting my gears for it to go any faster). So I took it to get a dignostic and Autozone told me it was a failing speed sensor. I checked the wire that is conected to it ( sensor that i checked is the one under the truck by passengerside on transmission) So i purchased a VSS and installed it, but still not working just doing the same thing. I made sure the connection was fine and all of that area. Im not sure what else it could be plz help me understand if I need to check anything anywhere on the truck or anything else it could be. Oh and also my check engine sign is on and also the abs and sometimes the 4x4 will come on and off here and there. Honestly, it drives soooo wonderful but this problem just made it horrible now. Im sooo worried that I might not be able to figure it out. Ive been looking online and reading peoples post, lots of them never figuring out the problem even when taking to a dealer. HELPPPPPPPPPP

There may be two sensors. Problem could be with the installation of used parts and the tech who did it,
