It is in the housing of the transmission. Since it is narrow, the reluctant ring can pass through it.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The reluctance ring, on the other hand, keeps the output shaft of the transmission from moving. When the ring goes through the Vehicle Speed Sensor&#8217;s electromagnetic tip, the teeth and slots work quickly to complete and break the circuit. The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) turns these changes to the circuit into the speed of the vehicle.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Diagnostic code P0501 OBD2 is set when the PCM notices that the information sent by the VSS sensor, which is the vehicle&#8217;s speed, is outside the expected range. In excess, it could be high or low.
