Circuit Operation

The Vehicle Speed Sensor is a gear-driven-(V6 Manual)/Direct Driven-(V6 Automatic), (V8 Automatic and Manual) Permanent Magnet Generator housed in the vehicle's Transaxle. This sensor generates a sine wave output with a frequency proportional to vehicle speed. The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) converts this signal to an output that is switched to ground at a frequency of 4000 pulses per mile at the DK GRN/WHT wire (CKT 817), which feeds the Instrument Cluster, Cruise Control Module, and Audio Alarm Module.
