Manual Transaxle Models:

The ECM assumes that the vehicle is being driven, while the vehicle speed sensor signal is being transmitted by the combination meter. If there is no signal from the vehicle speed sensor despite this condition being met, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the sensor. The ECM then illuminates the MIL and sets the DTC.
