Default Odometer on 92 Lebaron

Our 92 Chrysler Lebaron Landau 3.o l OHC built in Mexico has
discontinued to register the speed or mileage. The cruise control
stopped working when the speed went to 0. Bob

More then likely your speed sensor stopped working, Check to see if you
have a fault code 15 in the computers memory..

I had the same thing on my old LeBaron and it was the VSS just as maxpower
says. It was very easy to find and fix. Part should be about $30 or so at
the dealer.

Mounted on the transmission just where the axle on the right side
(passenger) goes into the trans.
You may be able to get it from the top, it has been awhile since i had to
replace one of those on that year

Your '92 3-litre LeBaron Landau almost certainly has the 4-speed automatic
transmission (gear indicator says P R N D 3 L), and not the 3-speed (with
gear indicator P R N D 2 1). If it is the 4-speed auto, there's no
external Vehicle Speed/Distance Sensor (VSS); this function is handled by
the Output Speed Sensor and you should fix it PRONTO 'cause driving with a
dead OSS will burn out your transmission.

If yours is a late-production '92 it could have the 3-speeed auto, in
which case it does have a VSS located on top of the transaxle RH axle
shaft housing extension, below, in front of and inboard of the brake
master cylinder.

I don't believe you are correct on this one Dan. If memory serves me
correctly, the 604 used the external VSS until 93. With the 93 models they
eliminated the VSS and started using the OSS for vehicle speed.

That could well be, and if so it would explain the OP's not mentioning any
shifting irregularities. I only have one car that came with a 4-speed
auto, which has since been removed -- together with the 3.0 litre V6 --
and replaced with something a great deal more robust and fun. I'll take a
look in the '92 FSM tomorrow at the office and see.
