Keep your speedometer reading and transmission signals talking to the PCM with the Standard Ignition Vehicle Speed Sensor SC202. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1995-2000 Ford Contour, 1999-2002 Mercury Cougar, and 1995 Mercury Mystique.
A vehicle speed sensor monitors the rotational speed of the driveline and sends that signal to the powertrain control module, speedometer, and related systems such as cruise control and transmission shift scheduling.
Signs the original speed sensor may need replacing include an erratic or dead speedometer, harsh or erratic transmission shifting, inoperative cruise control, or a check engine light. Because these symptoms can have other causes, diagnose the cause before replacing.
