Sensor, Vehicle Speed: Description: Description

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

The Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) is a hall effect sensor mounted above the transmission differential. The sensor is triggered by the ring gear teeth passing below it. The VSS pulse signal to the speedometer/odometer is monitored by the PCM speed control circuitry to determine vehicle speed and to maintain speed control set speed.
