The VIKA speedometer sensor is a high-quality component designed to transmit information about the vehicle's speed to the dashboard. It is compatible with a wide range of Volkswagen models (Golf, Jetta, Caddy, Passat, Scirocco, Transporter), as well as some Skoda and Seat vehicles. The device operates in systems with automatic or manual transmissions and ensures reliable communication between the transmission and the speedometer.
Key features include a cable length ranging from 360 to 390 mm, three contacts for connection, and an inductive sensor type. VIKA cables are available in various part numbers (e.g., 79570014401, 99571763901), allowing for an optimal selection for specific vehicle models. Cable length can reach up to 1110 mm, ensuring installation flexibility even in confined spaces.
Installing the sensor requires careful connection to the transmission and securing it with a bracket to avoid vibrations and signal loss. In most cases, installation is performed by professionals, but it can be done independently if the necessary skills are available. The sensor corresponds to original numbers 01M927321 and 171957803H, and has many analogs from known manufacturers, confirming its reliability and compatibility with modern vehicles.
