melted wiring cause the problem on my wife's trooper - too close to exhaust - melted insulation cause short in sensors signal wiring.
Fixed, everything works now.

Thanks. No melted wires that I've found. I'm sure mine is a sensor malfunction but honestly, it's just never bothered me enough to run the diagnostics yet.

I had this happen. One of the two speed sensors shorted out. Only had 2WD, and it's a major pain in the snow. They've been replaced at great pain to my wallet, but now I'm 4WD all the time. Mechanic says the TOD ECU was damaged.

Well thanks to Buffy for lending me the ENTIRE TOD system from his race truck (transfer case with speed sensors and electromagnetic coil, computer) to help troubleshoot. I thought wiring or computer since so many codes were thrown, but replacing just the speed sensors seems to have cleared up the problem.

Now back to my regularly scheduled non-fishtailing when hanging the 90 degree uphill left onto my street (ridiculous how fast you can go with TOD).
