How to service and repair the Speed Sensor on the Output Shaft on Ford Taurus?

Vehicle servicing of the Output Shaft Speed (OSS) Sensor starts with disconnecting the battery ground cable followed by hoisting the vehicle in the air. Mechanic wire needs to support the exhaust system before you take out the nuts which will allow you to disconnect the three-way catalytic converter from its dual converter Y-pipe. Start by unplugging the OSS sensor connector before you uninstall both the OSS sensor connector and bolt then remove the OSS sensor cover. Finally, remove the OSS sensor. The end of the installation requires you to perform the reverse steps from the removal stage.

The Speed Sensor of Ford Taurus sends data to the powertrain computer about speed and rotation shaft of the vehicle. The Taurus Speed Sensor produces an electric signal at the output shaft and is placed to read a toothed wheel. The computer uses this signal to set line pressure, schedule gear shifts, adjust shift feel, and manage torque converter clutch engagement. When the Taurus Speed Sensor signal has a break, the transmission will present harsh shifts, miss upshifts, and dump the torque converter lock-up. This Ford component features two construction styles: a permanent-magnet Speed Sensor that generates a sine wave voltage as the shaft turns and a reed-type Speed Sensor that opens and closes an internal switch in response to passing teeth. Both accomplish the same measurement task. The information generated can further be relayed to controls that manage power generation and other systems dependent on road speed. Every Ford Taurus relies on the same basic Speed Sensor theory, which ensures predictable shift quality and overall driving characteristics in the Ford powertrain control strategy.
