Intermediate Shaft Speed Sensor - Up to 2004MY

Description
The intermediate shaft speed sensor is located within the gearbox. The TCM uses this sensor to ensure correct gear engagement and to monitor the amount of slip within the gearbox. The TCM calculates the slip within the gearbox by comparing the difference between the inputs from the intermediate shaft speed sensor and the turbine shaft speed sensor. The intermediate shaft speed sensor detects the output gear rotation speed and sends an electrical output to the TCM, which also supplies an earth path for the sensor. The sensor is an inductive sensor that produces a sinusoidal output at a frequency of 54 pulses per revolution of the output gear. A rationality test is used to detect a fault condition. A fault is present if the intermediate shaft speed is less than 400 RPM, while the enabling conditions are satisfied.
