PT Cruiser L4-2.4L Turbo VIN G (2004)
OPERATION
The Input Speed Sensor provides information on how fast the input shaft is rotating. As the teeth of the input clutch hub pass by the sensor coil (Fig.
312), an AC voltage is generated and sent to the TCM. The TCM interprets this information as input shaft rpm.
The TCM compares the input speed signal with output speed signal to determine the following:
-
Transmission gear ratio
-
Speed ratio error detection
-
CVI calculation
The TCM also compares the input speed signal and the engine speed signal to determine the following:
-
Torque converter clutch slippage
-
Torque converter element speed ratio
