Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS)

  1. Remove VSS from transaxle. Apply battery voltage to VSS terminal No. 1 and ground terminal No. 2. Connect a 3000-10,000 ohm resistance between VSS terminals No. 1 and 3. See Fig 1 .
  2. Using voltmeter, check voltage between terminals No. 2 and 3 while turning VSS shaft. Voltage should pulse 8 times each time shaft is turned. If voltage does not pulse as indicated, replace VSS.
