Output Speed Sensor (VSS)
The Output Speed Sensor (also known as Vehicle Speed Sensor) is a variable reluctance magnetic pickup which receives
a sin wave from a speed gear on the output shaft and generates a square wave output. The sensor requires a two wire
connector from the Extension Housing to the TCM.
• The output speed sensor coil resistance is 1850-2250 ohms at 25.0 +/- 1.0°C.
• The maximum output speed sensor inductance is 2000 mH at 1000 Hz with 50 mA applied.
• The speed sensor will produce a minimum voltage (loaded) of 0.25 V peak positive and 0.25 negative at minimum
speed of 100 RPM.
• The speed sensor will produce a maximum voltage (loaded) of 100 V peak positive and 100 negative at a maximum
speed of 7200 RPM.
• All available GM and PCS extension housings use a symmetrical 40 tooth speed gear on the output shaft, resulting in
40 pulses per revolution to the TCM.
Pass-Thru Connector
The transmission to vehicle electrical interface is a 20 pin connector used to mate the internal and external harnesses of
the transmission. Use the alignment key to ensure proper installation. Reference Figure 1.5.2-1.
• The pass-thru connector envinromental temperature shall not exceed -40 to 135°C at any time. Proper shielding is
required. Reference Section 1.3.4 for temperature details.
