2005 Lincoln Aviator Vehicle Speed Sensor Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to service and repair the Vehicle Speed Sensor on the Output Shaft on 2005 Lincoln Aviator?

  A: Service and repair activities on the Output Shaft Speed (OSS) Sensor commence after vehicle elevation with proper support. The service and repair process of OSS sensors requires 4x4 vehicle operators to disconnect front driveshaft components from both the transfer case and front differential before extracting the complete front driveshaft from the vehicle. You will need to first detach the shift cable with bracket then disconnect the H02S sensor connector from the transmission case followed by removing the OSS sensor electrical connector. Unscrew the OSS sensor from the transmission before visual inspection of the sensor O-ring for damage. In case of damages you must replace it with a new O-ring. Begin by checking the O-ring seal of the transmission before replacing it if required while applying petroleum jelly as a protective agent. Place the OSS sensor into the transmission followed by tightening its screw to 10 Nm (89 inch lbs.). After connecting the OSS sensor electrical connector and H02S sensor connector to the transmission case you must reinstall the shift cable and bracket while tightening it to 40 Nm (30 ft. lbs.). The installation of front driveshafts must be performed on 4x4 vehicles by first connecting them to the transfer case using 30 Nm (22 ft. lbs.) torque and to the front differential with 18 Nm (13 ft. lbs.).
