Hi,

Does anyone know where the speed sensor is located on the 2.0 tdci focus had a good look around but can't find it. also cant find a reference to it in the Haynes manual.

Any help or pictures etc would be very helpful!

Thanks,
Andy

Cheers fella, I'll report back tonight would you know if it's accessible without removing other parts?

from the underside looking up yes you can get to it mate, there is a pin holding it in and can be a right twat to get out

GVK.

If its a mk2 Focus (or even some very late mk1)... they don't have a VSS the vehicle speed info comes from ABS via high speed can to PCM and instruments.

This is correct after another hour or so swearing and screaming last night I still didn't manage to find the vss... it doesn't have one despite the garage saying that's what I need and the part being on the system under the reg!

So the next question is with diagnostics code c1155 N/S ABS wheel speed sensor.. should I just jump to buying the sensor and fitting it or is there any other investigations I can do to check the faults origin?
