Depends.
On newer cars it's usually a pick-up that protrudes into the gearbox/transmission. Old cars might have a mechanical drive off a wheel.
The odometer gets its signal from the speed sensor, so if the (tailshaft) speed sensor is bad then the odometer obviously will not work
There is no such thing as an "odometer sensor." There is a vehicle speed sensor that is located on the output shaft housing of the transmission. That sends info to the speedometer. From there, the speedometer and the odometer are both operated internally, so if your speedo is working, but the odometer isn't, you have a problem inside the speedo head assembly.
The speedometer/ odometer signals come from the ABS sensors. There is a sensor at each wheel bearing.
Speedometer is ran by electronic sensor on rear end. Odometer is ran from speedometer. If both don't work problem is sensor. If speedometer works sensor is okay. If speedometer works and odometer does not problem is in mechanical parts (gears) of of odometer and has to be replaced. Can get used from eBay (search for speedometer or odometer, is one unit) or take to dealer.
Odometer is usually controlled by the speed sensor not a fuse . In most vehicles it is sticking out the side of the transmission
There is no such thing. The odometer is electrically driven from the PCM via the vehicle speed sensor. If the odometer has failed you need to replace the cluster.
There is no sensor.. it's a series of mechanical gears.
The odometer on a 1993 Nissan Quest will stop working if the sending unit has failed. When a signal is not received from the sensor, the odometer is unable to properly update.
bad ground or bad sensor or a short
Disconnecting the speed sensor stops the speedo and odometer. The odometer has to be changed by a certified speedo repair shop.
If both the odometer and the speedometer do not work it may be the speed sensor in the transmission is bad. If only the odometer does not work it is probably a bad cluster.
Yes it is... Pull the air cleaner housing and look down it will be the only senor there.
