Where is the Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) located?

The VSS (Vehicle Speed Sensor) is located on top of the transaxle. Remove cable from NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE. Lift the vehicle and secure it with jackstands. Disconnect the VSS connector. To remove the VSS, unplug the electrical connector and remove the VSS retaining bolt. Remove Retaining Bolt for VSS. Pull out the VSS straight up to get it out of the transaxle opening where it is located. Take off and throw away the old 0-ring. Apply a little clean motor oil to new 0-ring, then install it on VSS. The specific torque at which to tighten the retaining bolt is given here, so fix that bolt accordingly during installation of this module itself. Reconnect a VSS electrical connector back in place where you removed one before. Now lower vehicle, and reconnect NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE again.

Cadillac DTS Vehicle Speed Sensor

The Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) is responsible for measuring speed of Cadillac DTS vehicle depending on distance traveled or number of revolutions of particular part at a given period of time. This data is collected as it is used by several computer modules that control efficiency of numerous systems including the engine and ABS system. Cadillac DTS cars apply various kinds of vehicle speed sensors; passive and active. Passive types produce signals by induction from magnetic sources due to a rotating part and create sinusoidal signals, and active types improve on this with different conditioning to give different outputs. These have developed over the years, therefore enhancing their reliability and accuracy which is important for current and complex auto systems in Cadillac DTS models.

Each OEM Cadillac DTS Vehicle Speed Sensor we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
