Typical Scan Tool Data
Circuit/System Description
The automatic transmission (AT) input and output speed sensor (ISS and OSS) assembly each are part of a single harness. The ISS is a hall-effect
type sensor. The ISS/OSS mounts to the control valve upper body assembly. The ISS sensor end faces the splines on the 1-2-3-4 and 3-5-R clutch
housing outside diameter surface. The sensor receives 8.3-9.3 volts on the ISS/OSS supply voltage circuit from the control solenoid valve
assembly. As the 1-2-3-4 and 3-5-R clutch housing rotates, the sensor produces a signal frequency based on the splines on the clutch housing
outside diameter surface. This signal is transmitted through the ISS signal circuit to the control solenoid valve assembly. The control solenoid valve
assembly uses the ISS signal to determine line pressure, transmission shift patterns, torque converter clutch (TCC) slip speed and gear ratio.
