What is the location and function of the Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS)?

Above the transaxle, you will find the Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS). This sensor is a piece of electronic equipment that produces a pulsating voltage whenever the sensor shaft rotates. The PCM then monitors these voltage pulses to help regulate the fuel and ignition systems as well as transaxle shifting. First, take off the air filter housing in order to replace it. After this, remove the electrical connector from VSS. At last, get rid of VSS from transaxle. Replace the 0-ring by removing the 0-ring from speed sensor. Finally, installation is just like removal.

Pontiac Vibe Vehicle Speed Sensor

The Vehicle Speed Sensor in Pontiac Vibe vehicles is important in determining the speed at which the car or wheels rotate transmitting this information to the computerized modules in charge of altering the engine and the anti-lock braking systems. Some of these sensors are the Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) and the Wheel Speed Sensors (WSS), the sensors use ferromagnetic toothed reluctor rings and either passive or active sensor technology to obtain accurate speed data. Besides automotive segments, speed sensors are critical in rail vehicles; Hall effect sensor and magnetoresistive sensor are the front-runners in offering data regarding traction control and wheel slip protection. Advancements in the sensors have enhanced the signal and its reliability; measurand speed in the most unforgiving conditions possible; all of which have application in Pontiac Vibe cars.
