Transmission Input/Output Speed Sensor: Testing and Inspection
Output Speed Sensor Circuit
Output Speed Sensor Circuit
Circuit Description:
The output sensor is the magnetic induction type. Gear teeth pressed on the outside diameter of the output carrier assembly induce an alternating
current in the sensor. On two wheel drive vehicles, this current is transmitted to a digital ratio adapter where it is passed on to the PCM/TCM.
Since vehicle speed is taken from the transfer case on four wheel drive vehicles, the transmission output sensor signal on these units goes directly
to the PCM/TCM.
If the input sensor is not operational at start up, this can cause the output sensor to read zero.
