The speed sensor on a 1997 Honda Prelude operates by generating an electrical signal based on the rotational speed of the vehicle's transmission output shaft. It typically uses a magnetic or Hall-effect sensor to detect the movement of a toothed wheel attached to the shaft. As the vehicle moves, the sensor sends pulses to the engine control unit (ECU), which processes the information to calculate the vehicle's speed and relays it to the speedometer and other systems. This feedback helps in optimizing engine performance and ensuring accurate speed readings.
