  • Mercury Mountaineer speed sensor for accurate speed data
  • Resolving speedometer inaccuracies
  • Fixing transmission shifting issues related to speed sensor failure

Installation Notes and Tips

Installation of the Walker 240-1056 sensor requires removal of the old sensor and mounting the new unit using the single bolt hole. Ensure the female connector is securely attached to the vehicle’s wiring harness. Since the wiring harness is not included, verify the existing harness is in good condition before installation. Proper torque on the mounting bolt is recommended to avoid sensor damage or improper readings.
