The input speed sensor (ISS) is a hall-effect type sensor. The ISS mounts to the transmission case assembly and connects to the control solenoid (w/body and TCM) valve assembly through a wire harness and connector. The sensor faces the 3-5-R clutch piston housing machined teeth surface. The sensor receives 8.39.3volts on the ISS/OSS Supply Voltage circuit from the TCM. As the 3-5-R/4-5-6 clutch piston housing rotates, the sensor produces a signal frequency based on the machined surface of the 3-5-R/4-5-6 clutch piston housing. This signal is transmitted through the ISS signal circuit to the control solenoid (w/body and TCM) valve assembly. The TCM uses the ISS signal to determine line pressure, transmission shift patterns, torque converter clutch (TCC) slip speed and gear ratio.
