Vehicle Speed Pulse
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Acura MDX, 2012 Acura MDX, 2011 Acura MDX, and 2010 Acura MDX. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The vehicle speed pulse is sent by the PCM. The PCM receives a signal from the countershaft speed sensor, then processes the signal and transmits it to the speedometer and other systems.
