what are the negative imlications of having a faulty starter sensor?? besides the fact it switches my engine check light on when I increase revs constantly for 10seconds between 2 and 5000rpm...

if you could clarify what you mean by "starter sensor" i may be able to help?, i assume that you are reffering to the start signal which is sent to the ecu? if the check engine light is coming on what code is it flashing upon earthing the t terminal of the diagnonsis plug? my gze is map sensed thus may be different to the airflow meter version, but on mine the start signal also runs the cold start facility as well as going to the ecu.

i got this from club4ag
42) Vehicle Speed Sensor No speed sensor signal to ECU when loaded driving condition with engine speeds 2000 to 5000 rpm. for 8 seconds or more.
problems with VSS(speed sensor)
ECU
43) Starter No starter signal to ECU when cranking in TEST mode.(ie t1 earthed)
problems with Terminal STA on ECU
starter signal circuit
starter relay
ignition switch
i wouldnt worry about the speed sensor, and for the most part no damage will occur thru the STA signal not being recieved by the ecu, this is just my opinion, when i put a 4age in my last car the speed sensor issue was there so i installed a switch for the check engine light and the t terminal,and checked for other codes regularly.
