Where is the speed sensor on a 98 Dodge Dakota?

The transmission speed sensor on a 1998 Dodge Dakota is located in the overdrive gear case. This sensor actively monitors the speed of the transmission output shaft and relays this information to the powertrain control module, or PCM.

Which is Dodge Dakota transmission control solenoid do you use?

Notes: Overdrive and lock up solenoid. “DACCO is no longer supplying torque converters. For availability and technical support, call TC Remanufacturing at 1-800-882-6089. Notes: Transmission model A500, A518/46RE (14 bolt fluid pan). Overdrive and lock up solenoid. “DACCO is no longer supplying torque converters.

Where can I get a transmission speed sensor?

Replacement transmission speed sensors are available from most local auto parts stores and licensed Dodge or Chrysler dealerships. Shift the vehicle into park, engage the parking brake and turn off the engine. Open the hood and disconnect the negative battery terminal using a battery terminal wrench.

How do you install a new speed sensor?

Place a drain pan beneath the sensor to catch any transmission fluid that may drip out. Remove the sensor and O-ring seal using a metric socket and a ratchet. Install a new O-ring seal on to the new speed sensor. Install the sensor into the transmission using a ratchet and metric socket. Tighten it to 20 foot-pounds using a torque wrench.

What is the name of the transmission speed sensor?

There are generally two speed sensors that work in conjunction to provide accurate transmission data to the vehicle’s powertrain control module. The first is known as the input shaft speed (ISS) sensor. As described, this sensor is used to monitor the speed of the transmission’s input shaft. The other sensor is the output shaft speed (OSS) sensor.

What to do if your transmission speed sensor is bad?

Once the problem has been fixed, the mechanic will reset the error codes. If the problem rests with the speed sensors, depending on your particular transmission, the professional ASE certified mechanics may be able to replace the sensor.
