It uses a square plug-in connector with a male connector body, female blade terminals, and bolt-mount installation for a secure electrical and mechanical connection.

Compatible With 2000-2004 Nissan Pathfinder and 2001 INFINITI QX4 applications, including Pathfinder models with a black plug and the 2000 Pathfinder to speedometer application. The Standard Ignition SC462 is a practical choice when restoring accurate vehicle speed signal input to the drivetrain and instrument system.

Key Features

• Vehicle speed sensor for transmission-mounted applications
• Square plug-in connector design for OE-style fitment
• Male connector body with female blade terminals
• Bolt-mount installation location on the transmission
• Direct replacement for select Nissan Pathfinder and INFINITI QX4 vehicles
• Cross-references Standard Ignition SC462 for the same application

Detailed Description

The SC462 vehicle speed sensor is engineered for vehicles that rely on a transmission-mounted speed signal to support speedometer operation and related drivetrain feedback. For Nissan Pathfinder and INFINITI QX4 fitments, the connector style and mounting configuration are important for proper electrical connection and sensor alignment. Standard Ignition SC462 matches those requirements with a square plug-in connector, one connector interface, and a bolt-mounted transmission location.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Inaccurate or erratic speedometer readings
• Loss of vehicle speed signal from the transmission
• Speed-related drivability or shifting concerns tied to sensor input
• Intermittent dashboard speed display issues
• Faults caused by a worn or damaged transmission speed sensor

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector shape, terminal style, and mounting location before installation. This sensor mounts on the transmission and uses a bolt-mount design, so the original sensor position and plug style should match the vehicle harness. Confirm the application notes for 2003-2004 Nissan Pathfinder with black plug, 2001-2002 Nissan Pathfinder, 2001 INFINITI QX4 with black plug, and 2000 Nissan Pathfinder to speedometer fitment.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition is a recognized aftermarket brand for electrical and engine management components. SC462 is built to meet the fitment and connector requirements listed for the specified Nissan Pathfinder and INFINITI QX4 applications.
