Need to pass emissions sas help!

So when I did my sas I just said f*ck it I don't need a speedo ill use my GPS. Well now it's crunch time and I can't get my plates renewed untill pass. The only code (cel) is p0500, witch is vss malfunction because I don't have one. I bought a factory one for the old 8.8 and tried puting over the u joint off my tcase. Nothing. Tried puting it on the cps flywheel and the speedo didn't read anything. Don't really want to buy a new tcase with the sensor in it. I just need to figure something out for a week so I can pass. Any suggestions?

you need a speed sensor to get a sticker? dam, all i do is fill out a form. I never knew there were vehicle checks, only inspection in canada is a safety.


sounds to me like you should just get a T case and do it right.

I was hoping I don't have to do that. I was wondering if there was any way I could fake out the computer to read a pulse signal. So I have enough time to reset and let the systems gather enough data without the cel turning on so I can pass

So I tried setting a rearend with working vss on it next to my truck and wired it in. Spun the thing as fast as I could with the truck running. And the speedo didn't read anything..... Fuse is good. Stumped...

Tcase option is the only thing I've seen. Curious if there's another way.
