    Have you looked at the rear off the gearbox?
    Should see the speedsensor.

    Warning
    if you disconnect the speedsensor i would only use the gearbox in manual.
    Not let it work in auto.

    Maybe I am confused, because that is sometimes the case when you get older. But it appears that you have done about all you can with trying the battery disconnect reset. I would think that your next move is to get towed to a dealership. I would rather get that tow done, maybe tomorrow than wait until Tuesday. If you are lucky the dealership is near civilization which would afford you some better dining experiences. Just a suggestion.

    I would disconnect #2 BUT be carefull.
    I don't know how the computer will react.
    If you cannot put the gearbox in manual.......................i wouldn't do it.

    If it is about no speedometer and manual shifting not the big deal. What did u mean about reaction of comp? Who ever tried or heard about speed sensor trick on dt12?
