Is this the speed sensor wire??????
I'm getting ready to install a navigation system(PioneerAVIC-2) and after a hours of search engine looking and many conflicting answers, I hope that I have found the elusive speed sensor wire for my 99 CLK. The green w/black stripe wire as shown in picture goes into the blue connector block but does not continue through out the other side. this particular group of wires are located behind the passenger kick panel. I hooked up an old voltmeter (analog not digital) and get a reading of about 5+ volts no matter how fast I go, when I stop the car and put it in neutral it goes to zero volts. Going into reverse, it oscilates between 4 to 5 volts then drops to zero before I go into drive. My question is, is this the elusive "speed sensor" wire to tap into for the nav unit?

if in doubt, you can connect the wire to your AVIC. The N2 will learn the pulse of the car during initial set up... if it is the wrong wire it will give you the incorrect speed...
