    VSS ?

    I have an 85 chevy k5. I found the parts up at the speedometer and need to know what I hook up my vss input to? do I use the yellow wire that comes out of the little green adapter or use the wire before it?

    I don't have a brown wire. red green black come out of speedo head and pink black yellow come out of what I think is the buffer.

    Pink will be ignition, black will be ground, that leaves one wire. ;)

    The one I used in my car (conversion as well) had a brown wire, I don't think I've seen one with a yellow wire.

    I was just looking at some pictures and think you might need a different plug.

    I'll attach a picture of my optical VSS, so you can compare.

    Mine looks like that but has a yellow wire coming out of the part not drown. I was not sure if you connected it before the buffer part or after it.

    What? I don't understand what you are saying.

    The 3 wires (red, black, green) between the buffer and the optical sensor are simply signal wires too/from the optical sensor, why would you think that you need to attach to those?
