SOURCE: 96 mustang dies electrically while driving

did you change your battery or have a load test performed on it,it could be bad.
Have your mechanic change the wire harness for the alternator at the plug,they can burn out on the inside and look good on the outside,They are black 10 guage with orange stripe,and smaller guage plug wires.This part canbe purchased from the parts store, or dealer.

SOURCE: i changed the vss and the 4wabs sensers and the

on my 94 i didnt have codes either,but the electric motor failed on the abs due to moisture.the speedometer on mine jumps too,but mine with 220,000 miles it was the gauge cluster,couldnt tell if i was driving 5 miles per hour too slow or too fast.the cruise may be the clock spring behind the steering wheel,but most of the time the horn wouldnt work or the air bag light would be on and beeping

My engine light is on, my speedometer sometimes works and sometimes doesn't register, some times it bounces back and forth.

code p 500 refers to vehicle speed sensor (VSS) --circuit malfunction====causes ---wiring---VSS sensor---ECM
the engine light reports serious faults with both the engine and the transmission
I would go to an accredited auto transmission shop and have the VSS replaced or checked
The VSS drives the speedo, cruise control,gear changes ( reports to the transmission control module (TCM)

I have a vs ute hsv v8 auto The digital speedometer and speed alert and cruise control are not working there is power to speed alert and cruise control but cruise doesn't engage or hold at all.

run the fault codes and look for a faulty VSS sensor as it works the speedo and gives information to the cruise control as to road speed to keep the vehivlr at the set speed

Does my 1996 honda accord have a vehicle speed sensor

most old cars have a speedo cable.
is the odometer dead too. (we need that answer now)

there are 3 class evolutionary systems.
cable
electric sender to cluster
and sender to PCM and PCM drives cluster.
but honda does this on diffr, dates than most cars. (i learned)

so lets do that. we login to alldata.com and look , so can you at any time,
once a month i do random cars.
what engine, sometimes this varies by engine, and trans.
neither stated so Ill toss coin each time.
a/t trans.
1996
has electronic (hall) speed sensor VSS and runs
engine, cruise. odometer and cluster.

the 96 has no speedo cable, and works in modern mode, very advance for this time
also any scan tool on earth fits the PCM scan port
and if VSS is dead, it tells you that with a DTC , vss dead.
saving all that work wondering why it dont work.
see/?
PCM must see it work
and cluster
and cruise
if only cluster fails, and both speedo and odometer then its bad.
if only speedo fails but not odometer , then speedo meter is bad.
its that easy.

In neutral, speedometer gauge is bouncing, same as when driving on cruise. It is cutting off and coming back, and looks like trans. Is heating.

run the fault codes but it may be a VSS sensor failing
the speedo reading and cruise control all rely on a VSS signal.

Error code P0500 and speedometer and cruise control not working

Well code 500 would sure cause the problems you mentioned. If you have replaced the sensor and the problem continues, it could be something in the wiring or the gear inside the transmission.

Speedometer and cruise controll on2003 sonata stopped working ,and check engine light on

No speedometer or cruise control and a check engine light all point to the VSS(vehicle speed sensor) on the transmission.Take it to a parts store that does free code scans(like Auto Zone) to verify the code(should be P0500-P0503).Or,take a chance and just change the sensor.
