Detailed Description

Standard Ignition SC110 is engineered for accurate vehicle speed signal output in applications where the sensor mounts on the transmission. The connector layout, terminal style, and bolt-mount configuration are matched for service replacement on 1997-2003 Ford Escort and 1997-1999 Mercury Tracer models. If you are replacing a failing Ford Escort speed sensor or a Mercury Tracer transmission speed sensor, SC110 provides a direct-fit option for the listed vehicles. This part cross-references Dorman OE Solutions 917-622 for the same application.

Common Symptoms It May Address

• Inaccurate or erratic speedometer readings
• Transmission shifting concerns related to vehicle speed input
• Check engine light triggered by speed sensor faults
• Loss of speed signal to the powertrain control system
• Intermittent drivability issues tied to transmission-mounted sensor failure

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector shape, terminal count, and transmission mounting location before installation. Inspect the harness connector and sealing surfaces for corrosion or damage, and confirm the sensor seats fully at the bolt-mount location. For Ford Escort and Mercury Tracer applications, compare the original sensor to SC110 before removal to confirm the correct OE-style replacement.
