Some people call it a wheel speed sensor, while others call it the anti-lock brake (ABS) sensor. They're both right, since the wheel speed sensor mainly feeds data to the ABS module to prevent the ...

Transmission speed sensors are vital automotive components, but they're not immune to wear and tear over time. Here's what can happen if one of yours goes bad.

Speed sensors use magnets or optical sources to capture rotational or linear speed. Typically, they are used as gear-tooth speed sensors or are incorporated into stroboscopes or tachometers.
