Speed Sensor
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Lincoln MKZ and 2011 Ford Fusion. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The 2 speed sensors are installed in the transaxle case. One speed sensor detects revolutions of the intermediate shaft's C2 drum as input shaft revolutions. The other speed sensor detects the counterdrive gear as output shaft revolutions. These signals are transmitted to the TCM. Based on these signals, the TCM controls engine torque, shift timing and lockup.
