Where Is The Speed Sensor Located On The Transmission

The specific placement of the sensor allows the sensor to detect and report to the engine s computer through attachment cabling the rotation and speed of the shaft.

Where is the speed sensor located on the transmission.

Sign in to reply. The transmission speed sensor is located in the rear of a longitudinal mount transmission. If you mean the speed sensor for the speedometer it is located under the car where the right side axle goes into the trans axle. Remove the sensor mounting bolt.

The vehicle speed sensors are located at the wheels and are integrated into the abs system to read wheel speed at the hub. Disconnect electrical connector from sensor. It is located either on the transmission output shaft or the crankshaft and cars tend to have two of them so their data can be corroborated. The transmission speed sensor is also a vital component in electronic speedometers.

The sensors function through a surprisingly simple mechanism. It is held by a single bolt and a wire connector. There are two different transmissions possible. Lift the sensor out of the trans axle extension housing.

For transaxles the speed sensor is located on the long side of the output shaft. One has internal output speed sensor one has external output speed sensor.
