Is there a problem with my 1989 Crown Victoria?
Hello, I own a 1989 Crown Victoria and had a stumbling problem as well.

Why does my Ford Crown Victoria keep stalling?

What happens when the speedometer on a Crown Victoria stops working?
One of the most inconvenient things that can happen to your Crown Victoria is when the speedometer stops working. You don’t really realize how much you look at the thing until it’s just always sitting at 0 MPH while driving down the road.

How does the VSS work on a Crown Victoria?
The VSS is one part of a system of sensors that helps keep you safe (traction control, ABS, cruise control). A modern vehicle’s speedometer takes the input from the Vehicle Speed Sensor and sends that data to the ECU. The ECU is programmed with your Crown Victoria’s gear ratios and stock tire height.
