Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Code P075, Vehicle Speed Sensor Signal Interrupt: Notes
This test compares vehicle speed to Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP). Change in MAP must correspond with change in vehicle speed. PCM will ignore test if conditions for engine idle are present. If vehicle speed changes 8 MPH or greater in one second and is not accompanied by a greater than 2 kPa change in MAP, Code P075 will set.
This code will not turn on MIL. This code may be caused by an intermittent open or short to ground or each other on circuit No. 400 and circuit No. 401, an intermittent vehicle speed sensor, or an intermittent terminal contact at PCM terminals 2B9, 2B10 or at vehicle speed sensor.
This code may also be caused by Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) induced on circuit No. 400 or circuit No. 401 by running them along side spark plug wires or high power transmitters, like mobile radios, operating in vicinity, or running the vehicle in gear with wheels off the ground (on a hoist).

- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
