Where can I find the speed sensor on a Nissan Navara?

The speed sensor inside a Nissan Navara is located within the transmission. This sensor measures the speed of the output shaft, and the car's computer compares it to the engine's RPM to check for any slipping in the transmission. It is also responsible for determining the speed displayed on the speedometer and helping the cruise control set the desired speed. Depending on how the computer interprets the data from the speed sensor, it will make adjustments to various powertrain functions such as ignition timing, transmission, and fuel mixture. Signs of a failing speed sensor may include shifting issues, rough shifts that cause the car to jerk or shake, malfunctioning cruise control, and the illumination of the check engine light. In such cases, a diagnostic scan should be performed to identify the specific problem.
