Plymouth Voyager Vehicle Speed Sensor in US

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

Signs of a Failing Vehicle Speed Sensor on the Plymouth Voyager

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

Transmission-Mounted vs. Wheel-Mounted Speed Sensors on the Plymouth Voyager

On older Plymouth Voyager vehicles and most rear-wheel-drive designs, a dedicated transmission-mounted speed sensor monitors output shaft speed on the Voyager and serves as the primary reference for the Voyager speedometer and transmission control module. On modern Plymouth Voyager 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 Voyager, one sensor feeding multiple Plymouth Voyager systems from a single mounting point.

Why GeoBrakes for the Plymouth Voyager Vehicle Speed Sensor

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

Frequently Asked Questions - Plymouth Voyager Vehicle Speed Sensor

Can a faulty speed sensor affect the transmission on my Plymouth Voyager?

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

Will a bad vehicle speed sensor turn on the check engine light on my Plymouth Voyager?

Yes. A failed Plymouth Voyager vehicle speed sensor typically stores fault codes P0500, P0501, or P0502. Depending on the Voyager, 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 Plymouth Voyager?

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