Drive and Output Speed Sensor



Drive And Output Speed Sensor


The drive and output speed sensors are Hall sensors. Both sensors are located on the upper timing case. They are connected by means of a wiring harness and a connector with the EGS control unit.
Both sensors are supplied by the gearbox control with a voltage of 8.3 - 9.3 V.







Brief description of components

Driving speed sensor
The Hall sensor measures the driving speed on the turbine wheel shaft of the gearbox. The EGS control unit compares the driving speed and output speed and uses this to calculate the shifting time of the clutches. The EGS control unit adapts the piston pressures on the clutches accordingly, e.g. to compensate for differences in the friction pad and to adapt the heights.

Output speed sensor
The output speed is proportional to the driving speed and is measured by the Hall sensor on the output flange of the gearbox. The EGS control unit adopts the engine speed and, together with the load signals, calculates the required gear change.

Notes for Service department

General information
The drive and output speed sensors are a unit with wiring harness and connector. This unit can be replaced separately.
