Why does my Ford F150 have a p0720 code?

The concern will be how the transmission behaves without the signal from the OSS. In very rare cases the vehicle may misfire or even die when stopping. Here are the most common causes of P0720:

Is there a speed sensor on a Ford F-150 4×4?
My 2011 Ford F-150 4×4 is throwing a P0720 code on my SCT programmer. The speedometer isn’t measuring speed when driven and it shifts hard. I have seen on the older year models there is a speed sensor but I cant find it on the 2011 and there doesn’t seem to be much info about this problem on the internet.

What does the output shaft speed sensor p0720 do?
P0720 FORD Meaning The Output Shaft Speed (OSS) Sensor provides the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) with information about the rotational speed of an output shaft. The PCM uses the information to control and diagnose powertrain behavior. In some applications, the sensor is also used as the source of vehicle speed.

Why is my OSS not working on my F150?
It indicates that your F150’s OSS (Output Shaft Speed Sensor) is reporting a malfunction. It’s typically caused by a bad OSS, or a wiring problem. The OSS works by spinning a gear at the end of the transmission. As it spins, the voltage in the OSS changes.
