92 95 Ford Truck PSOM - A Different Fix

If you have struggled to get rid of speedometer fluctuations and transmission shifting issues on your 92-96 F or E series truck/van, so did I. This was a simple fix, after trying a ton of other fixes, that I did not see anywhere else and hope it helps you out.

Hi, thanks for sharing this! very interesting and i'm glad you got it fixed. Is there any chance I could buy a speed sensor from you that you have filed down? That would be amazing if possible. Would love to try it. My 96 F150 has been randomly hard shifting (overdrive light will come on) for the last 13 years... sometimes it will be fine for months.. and then it will go crazy and hard shift for days... I've taken it to the shop countless times - replaced rear Differential speed sensor. Just had the differential serviced. Now a new Transmission shop is thinking it could be the PSOM or instrument cluster. Would love your thoughts! :)

Could you estimate how much material you had to remove?

[@lviekas8703]

Good idea. Has this fix held up over time?

[@davidperelstein5329]

Absolutely. Still running strong after 6 months or so.

Could gluing a thin metal shim also work?
When I pulled my sensor there were small metal chips on it. Hoping that's not a bad sign.

I think adding shims would put the sensor further away, and the video is about getting the sensor closer to the ring.
