While driving; speedo goes to zero, transmission locks in 5th, no exhaust brake or cruise control, light says Missed Shift. Killing power at battery switch resets it. OK for 5 minutes or two hours then fails. Sometimes does not fail the whole way home. Milliemae had similar problem, had speed sensor replaced to fix. I would like to replace it myself. Where is it on 400ISL and what does it look like?

Most of them are on the transmission where the output speed can be measured, say near a drive shaft or output shaft. It should be a round electronic piece with two wires in a plug, held in the transmission by a clamp bracket and small bolt. If you're sure that's your problem, you can go buy a new one, and crawl under the coach to look for the part that looks like the one in your hand.
