    I dont know,,i have company truck, speedometer quit working so no governor working and odometer not keeping score. I assume bad connection on mine since originally speedo would quit on wet roads and come back on dry road.

    We had a truck that had similar issues come through our shop. Turned out to being a tiny magnet from a speed sensor was stuck on the tone ring at the trans output. Every time the magnet would come around to the sensor it shut off cruise, throwing random codes.
