Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) circuit is a magnetic induction type sensor. Gear teeth pressed on outside diameter of output shaft assembly induce an alternating current in sensor as shaft rotates. Signal goes directly to VCM. Pulsing action takes place about 40 times per revolution of output shaft of transmission and VCM will calculate vehicle speed based on time between pulses.
