Thank you for posting back here and keeping us updated. Excellent work on your troubleshooting of why you weren't getting any diagnostic codes.

Regarding your speed sensor, note that the signal actually goes through the odometer. It's possible the odometer panel circuit solder joints need to be re-flowed as well.

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
