How to replace the Vehicle Speed Sensor (OSS) on the 1993-2011 Ford Ranger?

This procedure applies to models with a 4-speed (5R44E) or 5-speed (5R55E) automatic transmission. Disconnect the cable from the negative battery terminal. Raise the vehicle and place it securely on jackstands. On 4WD models, remove the front driveshaft. The OSS sensor is located on the upper left side of the transmission, at the rear. On some later models, there are three speed sensors on the upper left side of the transmission. The OSS sensor is the rear one. Don't confuse it with the front sensor, which is the Turbine Shaft Speed (TSS) sensor, or the middle sensor, which is the intermediate Shaft Speed (ISS) sensor. Disconnect the electrical connector from the OSS sensor. Remove the OSS sensor retaining bolt. If you're planning to reuse the old ass sensor, remove and discard the old O-ring. Before installing the new O-ring, lubricate it with petroleum jelly. Installation is the reverse of removal. Be sure to tighten the OSS sensor bolt securely.

Ford Vehicle Speed Sensor

If you own Ford and want to keep it in top shape, choosing OEM Vehicle Speed Sensor is a smart move. They are precisely engineered and follow strict factory standards. They are made in advanced facilities that use cutting edge technology. Each part goes through thorough testing to confirm strength and safety, so you can trust it. FordPartsDeal.com gives you genuine Ford Vehicle Speed Sensor at some of the affordable online prices without cutting quality. Every OEM Ford part includes the manufacturer's warranty, easy returns, and super-fast delivery. So why wait? Shop now and get your vehicle back to peak condition.

Ford Vehicle Speed Sensor keeps the computer inside the car updated on the actual speed on the road to provide sharp control. In 1913, Ford was the first to develop the moving assembly line, reducing build times, pushing down prices, and making automobiles accessible to ordinary families across the globe. Ford stretches EcoBoost powerplants that squeeze on the punch acceleration on small gulps of gasoline, showing that efficiency does not need to be slow. Ford has SYNC voice technology stitched into the dashboards such that a driver can tap playlists or route directions without looking away, as far as the eyes should remain on asphalt where they belong. Ford piles Co-Pilot360 on top of zero-emission Lightning trucks to continue driving advancement on both safety and sustainability, revealing that innovation is not limited to steel, silicon, and battery cells. Vehicle Speed Sensor counts wheel rotation pulses and sends them to the powertrain module in the form of digital signals. Vehicle Speed Sensor is hooked up to traction control and anti-lock devices, which allow the ECU to adjust fuel, timing, or brake pressure before slip escalates into frenzy. Vehicle Speed Sensor eliminates the weakness of the old cable drives because it is mounted close to the gearbox, and it measures a toothed ring accurately using Hall-effect detectors. Vehicle Speed Sensor can withstand a greater air gap; therefore, mud, ice, or vibration seldom wipe its signal.
