Help, speedometer not working!

Code: P0502 with dead speedometer, limp mode and constantly running radiator fan.

I took the car to a dealer and they said speed sensor is fine.
They are point to the ECM logic issue ?

Are they just BS'ing to deny the warranty work? or someting wrong with my AP.
In fact, it ran fine almost a year in stg 2 form.

I have helix catted DP/Greddy Evo 2/Cobb AP

are you sure your moving? just kidding. Has anything at all changed with the car lately? Also, have you looked up what that CEL code is?

The code is P0502: low speed sensor input and dealer said the speed sensor is fine. They are saying it is ecu problem since it's been reflashed.

Did anyone have this issue?

Update

Took the car to a second dealer, they said speed sensor and would be covered under warranty. I waited almost 2 weeks to get the part and now they are saying it is not the speed sensor. The problem is speedometer gear and they won't warranty it due to the modifications.

I'm arguing the case with SOA.

goodluck with everything..remember that they have to prove that your modifications caused the malfunction in the part.

Dealer called and they were told by SOA to continue to work on the car. It will be covered by the warranty for now. According to the NASIOC board, speedo gear failure is a known issue in Saab 9-2x.
