Turbine Shaft Speed (TSS) Sensor

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Ford Pickup, 2003 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2003 Ford F450 Super Duty, 2003 Ford Excursion, and 2003 Ford Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The Turbine Shaft Speed (TSS) Sensor is a magnetic pickup that sends the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) information on the rotation speed of the coast clutch drum.
The Turbine Shaft Speed (TSS) Sensor is mounted externally on the top of the transmission case.
The PCM uses the TSS sensor signals to help determine Electronic Pressure Control (EPC) pressure, shift scheduling the Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) operation.
