Vehicle Speed Sensor

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Infiniti QX4, 2001 Nissan Pathfinder, and 2001 Infiniti QX4. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) functions as an back-up device for the revolution sensor. A speed signal from VSS is sent to VSS Meter (MTR) in the speedometer assembly. The VSS MTR then sends this signal to the TCM as an auxiliary revolution speed signal. If revolution sensor malfunctions, TCM will use VSS signal.
