The supplier lists it for the 1996–2000 Honda Civic, and it cross-references to 78410S04901, 5S4731 and 163-793. Easy Life Markets sells it as a single sensor for owners and workshops fixing speedometer and speed signal problems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe vehicle speed sensor (VSS) sits on the transmission and is driven by a gear inside the gearbox. It sends a signal that the engine computer and the speedometer use to calculate road speed. When it fails, the speedometer may stop working or jump around, and the engine computer may store a speed sensor fault code.

If the sensor is hard to reach, a mechanic can fit it quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy a Working Speed Sensor Matters\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe speed signal is used for more than the speedometer. On many cars it also feeds the engine computer, which uses road speed for idle control and other functions. A faulty sensor can cause an inaccurate odometer, fault codes and, on some models, drivability problems. Replacing a failed sensor restores an accurate signal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eChecking the Drive Gear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you remove the old sensor, look at its drive gear. Worn or broken gear teeth are a common cause of a dead speedometer. If the gear on the old sensor is damaged, also check the matching gear inside the transmission if you can see it, since a damaged internal gear can quickly damage the new sensor too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDiagnosing a Speed Signal Problem\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf the speedometer has stopped working, check the fuse for the gauges first, then read any fault codes stored by the engine computer. With the sensor unplugged, you can check the wiring for power and ground as described in the service information. If the wiring is good and the fault remains, a failed sensor is the most likely cause. On older cars, a corroded connector is also common, so clean the terminals when you fit the new sensor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Sensor Is For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis sensor suits owners of 1996–2000 Honda Civic models with a manual gearbox, Civic del Sol owners, and independent workshops that work on older Honda cars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it fit an automatic Civic?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. The supplier lists it for manual transmission models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this a genuine Honda part?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. It is an unbranded aftermarket replacement sold under the Honda reference number.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBuy the 78410-S04-901 Speed Sensor at Easy Life Markets\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can order this speed sensor right here.
