Anonymous Posted on May 18, 2013 Answered HOW TO TEST A TRANSMISSION SPEED SENSOR

08 SONATYA3.3. Transmission has two sensors. I have removed output and left input in the transmission. These are three wire sensors. Can I bench test with just a multimeter? Does this involved a magnet? On the vehicle do I just jump sensor signal to multimeter? Check in AC made with transmission turning?

SOURCE: Transmission input output speed sensors

The speed sensor is on the tailshaft of the transmission,on the passenger side of the car,it has 3 wires. The output sensors are located on the front of the transmission about mid-way up the housing & only have 2 wires. Note the output sensors are not responsible for vehicle speed. Only the output shaft speed is recorded. They are for finding the correct cvi(clutch volume index) only. If you have a cvi issue,the transmission is toast.
