How do you remove the VSS (Vehicle Speed Sensor)?

Loosen the left-front wheel lug nuts, then raise the front of the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands. Remove the wheel. Remove the inner fender splash shield. Remove the VSS hold-down bolt and clamp, then pull the sensor out of the transaxle case using a twisting motion. Installation is the reverse of removal. Be sure to lubricate the O-ring with clean transaxle lubricant before installing.

How do you replace the sensor?

To remove the sensor, start by turning the ignition key to OFF. Then, raise the front of the vehicle and secure it on jackstands. Disconnect the electrical connector from the sensor and disengage the electrical harness from the bracket attached to the sensor. Next, remove the sensor retaining stud and take out the sensor. Dispose of the old O-ring and make sure to use a new one when installing the sensor, even if you plan on reusing the old sensor. To install the sensor, simply reverse the removal steps and tighten the sensor retaining stud securely.

Chevrolet HHR Vehicle Speed Sensor

The Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) is installed in Chevrolet HHR vehicles to provide information regarding to speed of the vehicle based on distance covered or through measurement of the revolutions of certain components over a certain period. This data is important because it passed on to multiple computeral modules which control power output of systems like the vehicle's engine and ABS (Anti-lock Braking System). Chevrolet HHR models employ various types of speeds sensors; passive speed sensors and active speed sensors. Passive sensors oscillate sinusoidally due to magnetic interaction with the rotating mass; and the active sensors magnify this with conditioning circuits for different output levels. Thus the development of such sensors have promoted reliability and signal quality so that correct speed measurement is possible in various circumstances. In conclusion, the Vehicle Speed Sensor is very important for the good working and safety of Chevrolet HHR vehicles.

Each OEM Chevrolet HHR 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.
