The main function of your speed sensor is to provide information of how fast or slow your car runs. Commonly used speed sensors include the speedometer gauge, tachometer, cruise control unit and TCU. Through the number of revolution, the speed sensor determines the slowness and fastness your car travels. The result of the translation of mechanical rotation into the electronic impulses is the final outcome.

Available in the market today are several types of speed sensors that you can use for your vehicle. Popularly known among them is the speedometer. In most cars, speedometers usually have a value rating which is higher than the real speed. This is necessary to ensure that the driver or operator will not exceed the legal speed limit.

Know that exceeding the speed limit, is one major cause of accidents and collisions. Error in the speed sensor’s transmission or tire diameter is a factor that causes the sensor device not to give the exact information. To alter the interval of pulses into a digital display, the electronic type speedometer works with a computer. Another type of speed sensor that is commonly used is the tachometer. This determines the speed of your car through the rate of rotation generated by the crankshaft. Produced by the ignition system, the spark rate is expressed in rpm units. This type of speed sensor can match various types of driving conditions. Note however that its capacity primarily depends on the vehicle’s speed. When excess speed is used at long time, it can cause defects or damages. Replacement AT speed sensor offers quality performance when installed.
