Update on this problem... feel really dumb... turned out to be the engine fuse. What makes no sense is that I was able to pull 3 speed sensor codes which is what sent me in that direction. I cannot fathom why a bad engine fuse would be manifest as speed sensor codes.
Final update: those of you in the Denver area know that we had a bad hailstorm last May. Insurance decided they would total this vehicle and offered me as much as I felt I would be able to get on the street even without the hail damage. So, I took the offer which leaves me with only my Big Blue Vx. It too sustained hail damage but, after fighting with insurance, they decided it could be repaired (but not until I filed a complaint with the Colorado Division of Insurance). So, does anyone know of a good body shop? In addition to the dent repair I'll need to get it rewrapped (or possibly repainted).
