What is the Speedometer Sensor all about?

As its name implies, the speedometer displays your vehicle's real-time speed. Most speedometers are electronic. An electronic speedometer measures vehicle speed with the help of a speedometer sensor. This sensor, usually located at the transmission, detects the drive shaft's rotational speed. The sensor delivers a corresponding series of pulses to a computer, which then turns these pulses into the numerical figure the speedometer indicates. So when the speedometer sensor becomes faulty, the speedometer becomes unreliable.

Keep in mind:

Your replacement speedometer sensor needs to be specific to your make and model, or else it might be inaccurate. A VIN is required to ensure the correct match.

How it's done:

Check the operation of speedometer.
Scan the computer system in the car for codes.
Test the vehicle speed sensor.
Replace the vehicle speed sensor if faulty.
Recheck the operation of speedometer.

Our recommendation:

There’s no need to be proactive with your speedometer sensor, as your car will quickly let you know when it fails. When the speedometer sensor malfunctions, the Check Engine warning light should come on, and your vehicle's cruise control will stop working. The speedometer may also stop working, or it may become noticeably inaccurate.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Speedometer Sensor?

Check Engine light is on.
Speedometer does not work.
Cruise control is not working.

How important is this service?

A speedometer sensor measures the rate at which the vehicle’s driveshaft is rotating; this data is sent to the vehicle’s computer, where it is converted into a number and displayed on the speedometer. When the speedometer sensor fails, there is no line of communication to your speedometer, and you won’t be able to view how fast you’re driving.

Saab 9-3 L4-2.0L Turbo - Transmission Fluid Service - Elizabeth, New Jersey

Atilla is a great mechanic as well as honest and trustworthy. He won't pressure you to upsell on unnecessary repairs. I've used him 3 times already and would use him again if needed rather than going to a garage. I highly recommend him.

Saab 9-3 L4-2.0L Turbo - Crankshaft Position Sensor - Kissimmee, Florida

Very friendly, did the work fast! He ran a little late, but was apologetic. However if running late, I believe the mechanic could call to advise before the appointment time. It would add to his great service.

Another great job by Allen. Quality work and works in a timely fashion but still ensures the job is done right. This is important. You can trust Allen to do a good job for you and get straight honest answers. Plus there is no pressure. 5 stars all around.

Saab 9-3 L4-2.0L Turbo - Replace Leaking Oil Filter Cap - Castro Valley, California

Stefan was very professional and took a lot of time to explain what he found and repaired. He also answered any questions I had. He is very knowledgeable on Saabs which is great as this is hard to find. It remains to be seen if the oil leak was completely fixed.. I will be very impressed if it is as no one else has been able to fix it completely! I find this service very convenient! I wasn't sure if it would work due to where I live but Stefan was able to work with the area!
