hi when the cable is going you'll get these symptoms pull the cable out and inspect it if the looks ok then pull out the gears and inspect if it's ok then suspect the odometer

Hi:

Your transmission has 3 shift rails...
1st - 2nd
3rd -4th
5th- Reverse

If your 3rd gear doesn't work , you have an internal transmission problem, such as a syncronizer, or similar fail... There is not much you can fix, without removeing the transmission.

Hi, the speed sensor is powered by the PCM via the 10 amp fuse labeled IGN E under the hood. I don't believe your problem is the fuse, as the truck would not likely run if that fuse was bad. The more likely problem is with the speed sensor itself. Sorry I do not have a test procedure for this sensor, so I can't guarantee a new sensor will solve the problem. What you can do is while the truck is jacked up with the drive wheels off the ground (use 2WD), use a voltmeter to back-probe each terminal of the sensor with a voltmeter (put the other probe to chassis ground), and check the voltage with the car running in park versus running in gear. One of the terminals will have a reference voltage and the other the signal. If the signal changes with speed, the sensor is probably working, and the problem would then more likely be the instrument cluster. Let's hope it isn't the cluster, because they are more expensive. A new sensor is just $22 at Autozone. I have pasted instructions below for replacing the sensor. Please let me know if you have questions, and thanks for using FixYa.

Removal & Installation

1. Raise the vehicle.
2. Remove the bolts (1, 3) securing the front transaxle brace (2) to the transaxle and right cylinder head.
3. Remove the electrical connector at the vehicle speed sensor.
4. Remove the retaining bolt (1) and the sensor (2). Twisting the sensor while pulling outward will aid in removal.

To install:


CAUTION Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

1. Install the vehicle speed sensor and the retaining bolt. Install a new O-ring seal on sensor if necessary. Tighten the bolt to 10 Nm (89 inch lbs.).
2. Install the electrical connector at the sensor. Install the bolts securing the front transaxle brace to the transaxle and right cylinder head.
3. Lower the vehicle.

Wow, frightening, hope you are alright-check fuses and relays, the overload caused by the lightning strike may have blown one of these. Check harnesses and wiring to the gauge pod, worst case you might need to find another on ebay or at a local junkyard.
