The input speed sensor is pretty easy to find.

With the hood open and standing in front of the van you should see the transmission on the drivers side of the vehicle. look under the two transmission cooler lines that are connected to the transmission. You will see a two wire connector plugged into a light brown/cream colored sensor. That is the input speed sensor. Usually the lines need to be removed in order to replace it. A one inch socket or wrench will also be needed to loosen/tighten the sensor.

Eventually you will be asking about the output speed sensor. It looks exactly the same as the input. It is located to the right (drivers side) of the input speed sensor as you standing in front of the vehicle. It is usually easier to see/access/replace from under the vehicle.

What are the causes of engine failsafe p in Bmw x5 2006 model

The reason is the engine speed and transmission speed sensors don't agree. It could be caused by a bad transmission speed sensor, bad transmission fluid, a failed solenoid in the valve body ( in the transmission pan), a worn out valve body, a bad transmission, improper tires(that don't match each other), a faulty MAP sensor (air flow sensor on the air intake), faulty engine speed sensor and possibly a few other things.

Get the codes with a reader, and it might direct you in the right direction. But take the reading with a grain of salt, because it rarely tells you the exact problem. My fail safe came on and the code was TCC solenoid, but after replacing that, I had to install a rebuilt valve body to solve the problem.

What are the steps to replace the speed sensor? Do I access it from above or below.

Speed Sensor Removal
  • Use the Phillips screwdriver to loosen the screw in the intake boot clamp at the throttle body. Slide the intake boot off the throttle body. Pull the other end of the intake boot off the air filter housing.
  • Locate the Accord speed sensor at the top of the back side of the transmission, close to the firewall. It has two 10-mm bolts holding it in, and an electrical connector at the top. Unplug the electrical connector by squeezing the clip at the top and sliding it off the speed sensor.
  • Use the ratchet, extension and 10-mm socket to remove the two bolts located on the sides of the speed sensor.
  • Remove the speed sensor by pulling on it. You may have to twist it back and forth to work it free. If the drive link does not come out with the speed sensor, remove it from the transmission. The drive link is a very small part that links the speed sensor with the transmission.
  • Speed Sensor Installation
  • Insert the drive link into the new speed sensor. Carefully place the speed sensor onto the transmission, making sure that the drive link lines up in the shaft.
  • Install the two 10-mm bolts and tighten them until they are snug.
  • Slide the electrical connector back onto the speed sensor until it clicks into place.
  • Reinstall the intake boot by sliding it over the throttle body and air filter housing. Tighten the Phillips screw in the clamp at the throttle body.
  • Start the Accord and test drive it to verify that the speedometer is working properly.

    When I slow down to a complete stop, my 1999 chrysler sebring cuts off. Can you help me?

    Possibly a transmission issue. The transmission has a "lockup" mode, where a clutch connects the engine directly to the transmission at cruising speeds. It is then supposed to unlock at lower speeds and for stopping. If it doesn't unlock, the car will stall at a stop. Try putting it into neutral (carefullly, so you don't go into reverse) as you slow down, if it doesn't stall out, it is most likely the transmission lockup mechanism.

    If it stalls in neutral it is an engine issue. Bad idle control, bad ignition (it's easier to fire at high speed), bad fuel injector, bad air flow/pressure sensor... and more possibilities.

    Find and replace speed sensor

    Hi,

    On Top of the Transmission. You can see the Black sensor just under the Air Breather Intake assembly in front of the driver side. It has an electrical wire connection and is bolted onto the tranny with (2)5/16" hex head bolts and (1)1/2" nut that holds the throttle arm to the sensor. Very easy to replace.

    Thanks.

    the VSS is located on the transmission, you will need to remove the intake to see it more clearly but here is a picture that shows the unit and its components http://econtent.autozone.com:24991/znetrgs/repair_guide_content/en_us/images/0900c152/80/05/f9/9e/small/0900c1528005f99e.jpg
