2007 Ford Focus Vehicle Speed Sensor Parts Q&A

• Q: How to service and repair the Vehicle Speed Sensor on the Output Shaft on 2007 Ford Focus?

  A: The first step in servicing the Output Shaft Speed (OSS) Sensor requires placing the vehicle in neutral position with hoisting support. Start by placing a drain pan below the OSS sensor and then disconnect its electrical connector and remove the bolt to take out the OSS sensor. The OSS bore inspection reveals the condition of the O-ring seal so replace it with a new one if damage exists. A thin layer of transmission fluid needs to be applied before installing the OSS sensor onto the O-ring. Fit the OSS sensor while torquing it to 10 Nm (89 inch lbs.), next connect the electrical connector. Check the transmission fluid level while the vehicle is low to ground and you must replace it with automatic transmission fluid if necessary. Begin the engine operation by performing sequential movements of the transaxle range selector lever through its entire gear selection.
