transmission housing
What It Does:
The Transmission Speed Sensor monitors the speed of the automatic
transmission input shaft and output shaft to verify what gear the transmission is in and to
monitor the transmission for internal slippage.
Failure Symptoms:
Malfunction Indicator Light illumination, transmission slippage,
transmission may default to second gear, cruise control failure
====================================================
Note:
Some vehicles may use the same part for both a Speed Sensor and an ABS Wheel Speed Sensor,
while others may use two different parts.
These parts serve different systems of the vehicle and may fail for different reasons -
it is important to replace the proper sensor to fix the underlying issue.
