Pinpoint Test D : Input Shaft Speed Sensor 1 Or 2 Fault

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Ford Focus. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Refer to Transmission Controls - DPS6 for schematic and connector information.

    Normal Operation and Fault Conditions 

    ISS sensor 1 measures the input speed and the rotating direction of input shaft 1. The input shaft can be stationary. Therefore, it is necessary the sensor system detect the stationary state of the input shaft accurately. By being stationary the sensor must not indicate speed unequal to 0 (also not, if the motor runs by high speeds). The slow rolling of the car has to be detected safely. ISS sensor 2 measures the input speed of input shaft 2. The rotation direction is not measured.
