How does a speed sensor work with an Excitor?
Speed sensor and excitor (Fig. 11.40) The speed sensor uses the variable reluctance magnetic sensing principle, whereby a cylindrical permanent magnetic core with a coil wire wound around it, mounted on the stationary hub carrier, axle casing or back plate, produces a magnetic field (flux) which overlaps the rotating excitor ring.
How does a speed sensor work on a car?
There are 2 wires connected to the VSS, a black one and a white one. Both wires connect the VSS to your vehicle to ground the sensor and transmit information about you’re vehicle’s speed. Unplug the harness so you can take out the sensor.
Can a transmission speed sensor be removed from a car?
Some speed sensors are internal to the transmission and will require the transmission to be removed from the vehicle before the sensors can be replaced. The most popular service booked by readers of this article is Vehicle Drivetrain Inspection.
How much does it cost to replace wheel speed sensor?
Transmission speed sensors tend to cost around the same. Labor varies depending on the engine type, as some sensors are more accessible than others. If your mechanic needs to drop the transmission to replace a transmission sensor, you’re looking at bill around $800-1,000. Wheel speed sensors are generally pretty accessible and easy to replace.

Where can I find a speed sensor wire?
Discussion in ‘ 1st Gen. Tacomas (1995-2004) ‘ started by whizfish, May 18, 2019 . [Solved. See followup post below. The pics in this post do NOT show the correct wire. -Dan] I’m trying to find a speed sensor wire to connect to a new stereo receiver I’m installing.

How does the speed sensor work on a stereo?
You can intercept the wire coming out of the cluster. If the stereo has a navigation system it uses the speed signal to calculate your speed more accurately and quickly than just using GPS. It automatically calibrates the speed sensor signal to speed based on GPS calculated speed, then uses the speed sensor signal after that.
