5 Symptoms Of A Bad Speed Sensor - Faulty or Failing Transmission Speed Sensor Causes & Fixes

[@beverly4702]

If your speed sensors are starting to fail will it trip a check engine light? I have been experiencing similar things described in your video and mechanic doesn’t seem to take me seriously because check engine light is not on.

[@LuhYpSnippets]

Yes it will

[@erickdiaz6251]

sometimes it will not throw a check engine light

[@josephdirisu8714]

This explains what my car is likely going through. Mine is when the outside temperature exceeds 34degreees, the speedometer stops reading. Also when I’m on a long journey, the speedometer comes on and off making the acceleration stressful when it is off and I have to Rev high before the gear selects , while when it is on the gear selects smoothly.

[@Jiggysayso]

Experiencing the same problem

[@jeremyelam7855]

Can it a speed sensor cause irractic idle and trouble acceleration.

[@tracysmith8223]

Yes

[@haroldgeorge4222]

Thank you for the information

[@Miloboa]

so i’m in an interesting situation, I have codes for a bad engine speed sensor and had throttle actuator. This week, my car acted like the transmission died on the highway. But, with my google research apparently it also effects the transmission working with the engine. What a pain.

Good Lord ! Give me a '61 Impala ASAP.

Ok I have watched your video and several others and I am still confused even though these videos claim to tell the difference between a vss and trans input and output sensors. Sad to say none have made it clear the difference. My 2002 Jeep Liberty is showing a PO500 which is a vehicle shifting sensor (vss). My speedometer never has worked since I bought it, and it just recently started shifting kinda of hard going into drive. So can someone please tell me what I need to know. Where is the VSS on my 02 Jeep Liberty. If there's a difference then the VSS is only 1 sensor and the transmission is of 2 sensors in and out. I need to know like ASAP so I can get this problem taken care of. Thanks

Can a speed sensor cause brake to lock on one side? Or when i turn my steering wheel to the left

[@Smith93646]

No you gonna need some brakes and /or a brake caliper

[@Daybreaker16]

Has to be a bad brake caliper

I have a 2006 jeep grand cherokee,at a steady speed it feels like it sputters,but its not the engine hesitating ,and at times the traction control light comes on along with the abs light and esp and bap come on,was told bye a mechanic that I had a bad wheel bearing sensor and I needed a new wheel bearing,,wonder if he could just replace the sensor

[@danielrosario4997]

Have cx9 2011 kicking shifting fron 2 to 3 witn erratic acceleration like it goes to neutro also times that stay on 3 gear don't change to 4 gear have to turn off to get out from 3 gear

[@angelvalenzuela6527]

I replaced the VSS and instrument cluster and VSS pigtail sensor still mph jumps but not as much and doesn’t shut off on me no more but still jumps here and there . What else could it be ?

[@unebonnevie]

Is the speed sensor also called the main pick-up assembly?

[@michaelbarela2733]

If my car is not showing codes can a faulty output shaft sensor cause poor acceleration with high rpms? Everything else is working properly no issues with speedometer or any other symptoms that I noticed

[@veronicavillanueva4435]

Same thing is going on with my car did you find out what it was

[@JavierSanchez-cq6ry]

I have a pilot 2007 and I get a new speed sensor because the old one was broken but my transmission broke again the new one, let me know if you know something about that. Thanks nice video

[@rapturekevin]

Mine goes stupid when it rains. I'm guessing wiring. I covered it with dielectric grease and it works when it's wet but I need a permanent fix.

[@danielrosario4997]

No check ingine Is that a eratic speed sensor need to replaces pleses help me out

[@scottjoel9505]

i have a Nissan bassara 1999 but when i press the accelerator...the rpms go high upto 3000 yet ts accelerating slowly and the gear shift from 1st to 2nd is jucky....even when am going downhill...sometimes it shifts to 1st gear and as u press the accelerator it revs high then jucks into second gear....cud that be the same problem

[@-envy-2409]

I have a 1994 geo metro and when i let off the gas the speedometer drops to 0 then when i give it gas it picks right back up i havent noticed any other issues as it drives perfectly fine just the speedometer is glitchy

[@KennyNewsom]

Can it raise the rpm and them hook and jerk like it could seem like the transmission is slipping??

[@rafaelquinterothe2101]

My car did the same it reved up when put in drive almost went thru the garage lol

Hi, I have an automatic ‘95 Toyota Camry showing a p1705 code “direct clutch speed sensor.” A backyard mechanic friend installed an output speed sensor (the cheaper more simple one of the two available on rockauto, with two prongs, not three, and no plastic gear at the bottom which some of the other one come with). That didn’t fix the problem-it’s still throwing that same code and the shifting is a bit off sometimes with hesitation or a slight jump and the o/d light comes on and off. The speedometer seems to work fine. I can’t be sure it’s showing the right speed but it moves smoothly and consistently with acceleration and deceleration. Could I need to replace the electrical connector for the output speed sensor he installed? Or might I need to buy the (only) other speed sensor I see available which is longer, sometimes with the plastic gear on the bottom (one of these kinds mentions the speedometer which makes me think that’s not the one I need, as my speedometer seems to work fine)? Is there another speed sensor it could possibly be which isn’t available for purchase on rockauto or at parts stores i’ve called? I’m very confused about how many there are and all the different names-direct clutch speed sensor, vehicle speed sensor, transmission speed sensor, output speed sensor vs. input speed sensor (on rock auto website they don’t have any sensors mentioning input or vss or direct clutch). How can I tell which will solve the problem without having to just buy the cheaper one and hope it solves the problem?

Hi, I have a mitsubishi pazero not pick up speed, when I speed up, it slower down.

[@IsaacRamirez619]

Can it affect throttle response ?

[@phelngood]

I just purchased a 2013 Nissan Marano 4 wheel drive 6 cylinder. The vehicle will not drive when I put it into drive and it will not go anywhere while it's in reverse, however when it is in. Park some push the gas pedal. And it accelerates the same with neutral, but not with reverse or drive. What would be the problem?

[@immanuelb.ascension3838]

Did you sort out the problem. I am experiencing the same with my Nissan Elgrand E51

My Highlander did that, when my ex boyfriend switched relays around … I literally went under hood and checked them, switched two back to their original spot, and the car drove perfectly again!

[@bxrwolfdan3708]

Welp, I drive a 2003 Audi A4 1.8T Quattro and, it seems to be that my front left ABS Wheel Speed Sensor might need to be replaced. Odd behavior while driving, at random moments, both the ABS and ESP lights come on and Speedometer stops working. The speedometer works for a little bit then randomly stops working when the ABS and, ESP lights come on. I checked the front left ABS Wheel Speed Sensor and, it seemed fine to me. Quite dirty, no corroded wires, no splits of the wires, only thing I noticed different is that, the cover for the some areas of the wires is gone, exposing the wires. That’s all I know so far

[@phelngood]

What do I do if my car will not drive while in drive? Could that be a faulty speed sensor?

Check the transmission fluid let car run till it's warm up

My car doesnt exceed 100mph while it has maximum speed of 180mph. No check engine light and no any troubke codes. Can it be a speed sensor?

[@Big_Ben1988]

Why do you need to drive faster than 100mph? Is it even legal on any highway? None that I know of.
