- Measures and relays information on vehicle speed
- Helps your engine adapt to different speeds for maximum efficiency
- Can wear out over time or be damaged by collisions, water, or debris
Your Vehicle Speed Sensor does precisely what its name indicates: senses how fast your vehicle is moving. This sensor surveys wheel speed, transaxle speed, or transmission speed, and sends this data to the engine. Your engine's control system uses this real-time data to regulate specific factors as you drive, such as ignition timing and transmission shifting thresholds.
If you have a damaged speed sensor under the hood of your INFINITI, you might see inconsistent readings from the speedometer or new issues relating to your transmission. A dashboard light could also turn on, and your INFINITI's cruise control might cut off quickly or stop working altogether. Sometimes, an older Vehicle Speed Sensor will break down from normal wear over time. In some cases, acute issues — like excessive moisture or an impact during a collision — can render your Vehicle Speed Sensor unusable.
