What Is a Speed Sensor?
A vehicle speed sensor (VSS) is a small device mounted on your car’s transmission that lets the car’s onboard computer know how fast you’re moving. It measures your car’s rotational speed and relays it to your car’s speedometer.
The vehicle speed sensor, also known as a transmission speed sensor or output shaft speed sensor, plays an active role in your car’s transmission and cruise control systems.
There are also ABS wheel speed sensors (WSS) on a vehicle’s wheel hubs (both on the front axle and rear axle). Their function is to monitor the rotation of each wheel and relay the data to the ABS control module for better vehicle control.
