Looked around online and ut seems like this is the speed output sensor. But the only site I can find the sensor on is parts geek. And they don't seem to ship to Sweden. Does anyone know where you can buy this sensor?

What is the part number you are looking for? The part number cross-reference in you r link earlier when I look it up shows it is fitted to 96-98 cars ad one website show it fitted to 2004 model Volvos.

Did you try Volvo or gcp.se for the part?

Thanks,

Neil.

Found it on volvo! Thanks!
Wich of the 2 speed sensors controls shifting. The input or output sensor? Anyone have a clue?

I really don't know. I would suggest logic says the input controls the transmission shifts. I would expect the output would control the speedometer read out and the ABS signal.

You may have to ask Volvo or a transmission expert to confirm.

Good Luck!

Thought so too, cause the input sensor is much easier to get ahold of and way cheaper.
Will try to check with volvo.
I really hope it's the input tho because it's so much easier to reach, lol
Thanks!
