Looking for chevy venture 2001 speed sensor that is located in the transmission?

The 2001 Chevy Venture's transmission speed sensor isn't directly *in* the transmission in the same way some are. Instead, it's typically part of the transmission's output speed sensor assembly, often mounted on the transmission case itself, near where the output shaft connects to the driveshaft. It's a common point of failure.

You won't find it listed simply as "speed sensor". You'll need to search using terms like:

* Transmission Output Speed Sensor (OSS): This is the most accurate term.

* Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS): While there might be a separate VSS on the wheel, this term *could* also refer to the transmission-mounted one depending on parts listings. However, OSS is the more precise term.

* 2001 Chevy Venture Transmission Speed Sensor (or similar, including the engine if you know it – 3.4L, etc.)

To find the correct part:

1. Use your VIN: The most reliable way to find the correct part is by entering your vehicle's VIN number on a reputable auto parts website (like AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, RockAuto, etc.). This ensures you get the right sensor for your specific model and transmission.

2. Check your owner's manual: It may have a diagram of the sensor location.

3. Consult a repair manual: A Haynes or Chilton manual for your year and model Venture will provide detailed diagrams and instructions.

4. Check with a local parts store: A knowledgeable parts professional can help you locate the correct sensor using your VIN or vehicle description.

Remember to compare the part number from your research with the part number on the sensor (if you can remove and examine the old one). This extra step will help prevent incorrect purchases.
