Keep your automatic transmission reading speed accurately with the Standard Ignition Automatic Transmission Input Shaft Speed Sensor / Vehicle Speed Sensor (MPN SC242). It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2005-2008 Acura RL [All], plugging in without modification to provide the electronic speed signal your driveline relies on.
This part is cataloged under both names — Automatic Transmission Input Shaft Speed Sensor and Vehicle Speed Sensor — so you may see it listed either way.
Speed monitoring: Reads rotational speed and sends an electronic signal to the transmission control module/PCM used to manage shift timing and related functions.
Direct fit: Designed to replace the original sensor on the listed application, mounting in place of the factory unit.
Conditional repair: If a failed speed sensor is the cause of erratic or harsh shifting, a speedometer that drops out, or a speed-related trouble code, this replaces it.
Because these symptoms can have other causes, diagnose the sensor before replacing. Interchange: Manufacturer part number SC242.
Fitment: 2005-2008 Acura RL [All]. Confirm the correct sensor for your build using the Buyer's Guide tab.
