How to Service and Repair the Rear Speed Sensor on Ford Escape?

The service and repair of the output shaft speed (OSS) sensor requires vehicle support while raising it and removing the LH front wheel together with the splash shield. Take out the OSS sensor after disconnecting its electrical connector and removing its bolt. Inspection of the OSS bore demands evaluation of the O-ring seal for damage. Replace the seal with a new one if necessary. The application of petroleum jelly with a thin coating requires installation before placing the OSS sensor. Follow by placing back the OSS sensor while connecting the electronic cable to it. Reinstall the LH front wheel followed by the splash shield while proceeding to lower the vehicle. You should inspect the transmission fluid level and replenish it with Mercon(R) V automatic transmission fluid XT-5-QM or equivalent fluid which complies with Mercon(R) V standards when needed. Test the engine operation while shifting the transaxle range selector lever across all positions.

How to service and repair the front Speed Sensor on Ford Escape?

The first step to fix or maintain the front wheel speed sensor includes removal of the wheel and tire. Starting from the body disconnect the grommet which lets you draw the connector out of the hole. The sensor wiring needs disconnecting and the retainer requires detachment. Remove all bolts by cleaning away the collected dirt from around the sensor before extraction. Stripping off the sensor bolt will reveal the mounting surface which requires thorough cleaning before putting back the sensor. The installation ends by performing the reverse actions of removal.

The transmission output shaft rotation is tracked by the Ford Escape Speed Sensor for onboard computer control. The Speed Sensor is installed on the transmission. The Speed Sensor utilizes either a permanent magnet or reed-style pickup which generates electronic pulses whenever the teeth on the rotating shaft pass the sensor. This ensues the switching of the magnetic pickup, which produces electronic pulses and creates a vehicle speed signal. The Ford gearbox manages hydraulic line pressure, schedules shifts, adjusts shift feel, and commands torque converter clutch engagement based on that throttle position signal, load, and temperature as determined by the computer. In case the Speed Sensor fails to furnish any or crooked pulses, the system can postpone or inhibit upshifts, make gear changes abnormally firm, and cancel torque converter clutch operation, which noticeably alters normal Escape operation. At this time, no alternate designs are confirmed, meaning that this description applies generally to Escape vehicles. The performance of every Ford Escape driver depends on Speed Sensor feedback, and the consistent quality of Ford shifts and driving feel relies on Speed Sensor feedback.
