Honda Cr V Vehicle Speed Sensor in US

The vehicle speed sensor on the Honda Cr V is a single component whose data feeds multiple vehicle systems at once on your Cr V. When it fails on the Honda Cr V, the effects appear across your Cr V speedometer, transmission, cruise control, and ABS simultaneously, making diagnosis less straightforward than a fault that affects only one system on the Honda Cr V.

Signs of a Failing Vehicle Speed Sensor on the Honda Cr V

• Speedometer on your Honda Cr V reading zero, displaying erratically, or showing an inaccurate speed
• Harsh, erratic, or delayed transmission shifting on the Cr V, the TCM uses speed data to determine shift points
• Cruise control on your Honda Cr V refuses to engage or cuts out unexpectedly during use
• ABS or traction control warning lights illuminated on the Cr V dashboard
• Check engine light on your Honda Cr V with stored codes P0500, P0501, or P0502
• Cr V transmission entering limp mode, locking into a single gear to prevent damage

Transmission-Mounted vs. Wheel-Mounted Speed Sensors on the Honda Cr V

On older Honda Cr V vehicles and most rear-wheel-drive designs, a dedicated transmission-mounted speed sensor monitors output shaft speed on the Cr V and serves as the primary reference for the Cr V speedometer and transmission control module. On modern Honda Cr V front-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive platforms, wheel hub sensors serve the dual function of ABS speed sensing and vehicle speed data delivery on the Cr V, one sensor feeding multiple Honda Cr V systems from a single mounting point.

Why GeoBrakes for the Honda Cr V Vehicle Speed Sensor

Signal accuracy is the defining specification for a Honda Cr V vehicle speed sensor. A sensor that generates the wrong pulse frequency for your Cr V control modules produces incorrect speedometer readings, mis-timed transmission shifts, and inaccurate ABS calibration on your Honda Cr V, even if it passes a basic resistance test. Every speed sensor in the GeoBrakes catalogue is sourced to the correct signal frequency for the Honda Cr V exact year, make, model, and sensor position.

Frequently Asked Questions - Honda Cr V Vehicle Speed Sensor

Can a faulty speed sensor affect the transmission on my Honda Cr V?

Yes. The Honda Cr V transmission control module relies on vehicle speed data to calculate correct shift timing. A failed Cr V speed sensor can cause erratic shifting, delayed upshifts, incorrect downshifts, or trigger Cr V limp mode.

Will a bad vehicle speed sensor turn on the check engine light on my Honda Cr V?

Yes. A failed Honda Cr V vehicle speed sensor typically stores fault codes P0500, P0501, or P0502. Depending on the Cr V, it may also trigger ABS, traction control, or transmission warning lights simultaneously.

Is the vehicle speed sensor the same as the ABS wheel speed sensor on my Honda Cr V?

On many modern Honda Cr V vehicles, yes, wheel hub sensors serve both the ABS system and vehicle speed sensing simultaneously on your Cr V. On older Cr V vehicles with transmission-mounted speed sensors, they are separate components. Use the GeoBrakes vehicle selector to confirm the correct sensor type for your Honda Cr V.
