B77 25 SPD No.1 Speed Sensor (Manual Transmission).

No.1 Speed Signal (Automatic Transmission).

Input (Manual Transmission),

Output (Automatic Transmission)

This pin is used to determine vehicle speed. (Manual Transmission).

This pin is used to provide the vehicle speed signal to the dash (Automatic Transmission).

Vehicle speed is used in idle control, automatic transmission, cruise control control, speed limiting etc (Manual Transmission).

Vehicle speed is outputted so that it can be displayed on the combination meter (Automatic Transmission).

This pin is connected to the combination meter speed output which outputs 4 pulses (Open collector square wave pulses) per manual gearbox mounted speed sensor shaft revolution.  The combination meter receives its speed signal from the speed sensor which is located on the right, rear side of the manual transmission and outputs 4 pulses (0 to Battery Voltage square wave pulses) per sensor shaft revolution. (Manual Transmission).

This pin generates a signal that is equivalent to the gearbox mounted speed sensor in a manual transmission equipped vehicle.  In an automatic transmission equipped vehicle there is no dedicated speed sensor for the combination meter, to allow the combination meter to function the required speed signal is generated by the engine ECU to simulate the not fitted, dedicated speed sensor.  The engine ECU outputs 4 pulses (0 to Battery Voltage square wave pulses) per tail shaft revolution.  (Automatic Transmission).
