There are several things to note regarding the function of the N2 and N3 speed sensors.
- K1 clutch (N3 speed sensor) will show no rotation whenever the B1 Brake is applied. N3 = Zero in 1st, 5th and Reverse.
- With the vehicle moving forward or reverse, N2 speed sensor reading will be greater than zero in all gears
- Whenever the K1 clutch is applied (2nd, 3rd, and 4th) N2 will be equal to N3.
- There is no speed sensor internal to the transmission that directly measures input shaft speed. However, when K1 is applied N2 equals input shaft/turbine speed.
- The engine speed is fed to the TCM via can bus thus providing impeller speed.
- There is no speed sensor internal to the transmission that directly measures output shaft speed. ABS wheel sensors provide output shaft speed.

NOTE:
N2 sensor, N3 sensor, output shaft speed sensor are speeds relative to the input shaft turbine speed.
| GEAR | INPUT SHAFT/TURBINE SPEED | N2 SENSOR | N3 SENSOR | OUTPUT SHAFT SPEED | OVERALL RATIO |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1ST | 1.0000 | 0.6081 | 0.0000 | 0.2782 | 3.59 |
| 2ND | 1.0000 | 1.0000 | 1.0000 | 0.4574 | 2.19 |
| 3RD | 1.0000 | 1.0000 | 1.0000 | 0.7115 | 1.41 |
| 4TH | 1.0000 | 1.0000 | 1.0000 | 1.0000 | 1.00 |
| 5TH | 1.0000 | 0.6081 | 0.0000 | 1.2035 | 0.83 |
| REVERSE(S) | 1.0000 | 0.6081 | 0.0000 | -0.3157 | -3.17 |
Based on the preceding chart, it appears that N3 sensor is redundant and provides no additional information. However, the TCM needs to know Input Shaft/Turbine speed. Since the N2 sensor is not directly tied to the Input Shaft, the N3 sensor is required to inform the TCM to divide the N2 value by 0.6081 or 1.0000 to calculate actual Turbine speed.
