The vehicle speed sensor is mounted on the transmission, but on 2000 and later models the VSS is combined with the rear axle sensor located on top of the differential. The powertrain control module uses the sensor input signal for several different engine and transmission control functions. The VSS signal also drives the speedometer on the instrument panel.
