DESCRIPTION
The transmission revolution sensor (NSS) detects the secondary pulley speed and sends it to the TCM.
The TCM determines the current gear ratio from the transmission revolution sensor (NSS) signal.

Intermediate Shaft Speed Sensor "C" No Signal |
When the transmission revolution sensor (NOUT) signal indicates 350 rpm or more and the transmission revolution sensor (NT) signal indicates 780 rpm or more, the transmission revolution sensor (NSS) signal indicates less than 300 rpm for 5 seconds or more (1-trip detection logic). |

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The TCM receives signals from the transmission revolution sensor (NSS) installed to the continuously variable transaxle and determines the secondary pulley speed in order to control the gear ratio.
If the TCM detects no signal from the transmission revolution sensor (NSS) even while the vehicle is being driven, it will determine that in the transmission revolution sensor (NSS) is malfunctioning, illuminate the MIL and store a DTC.
