Hi Bobby,

On the basis of logic, you must check on everything you may have disturbed during the diff. job. Electrical connectors are a likely bet, including those involving speed sensors. I would gather that your speedometer is working, but as a check on the other sensor, try out your cruise control.

Do you have a fault light illuminating?
