What are the appropriate values for the Overdrive Drum Speed Sensor?
[...]
Right now, when it is idle input shaft speed is close to RPM. Output shaft speed is 0, what I expect because it is not moving. ODS show over 4000, not what I expected, or is it?
Because your post inspired curiosity, I looked into this a bit.
I have a 2004 Ford Ranger 4.0-liter V6 with 4WD which I believe has the 5R
55E transmission. (Curiously, this would be contrary to the door jamb sticker, showing transmission code "D", and Ford's own 2004 "Owners Guide" which dictates that "D" = 5R
44E.)
I set up a test using all known PIDs related to transmission shaft speeds then took a test drive.
I collected data on Turbine Shaft Speed (TSS), Input Shaft Speed (ISS), Overdrive Drum Speed (ODS), and Output Shaft Speed (OSS). (I'm not showing OSS in my attached image since it's irrelevant to this particular discussion.)
I'm reasonably confident of the PID decoding (formula) for TSS and ISS. I'm slightly less confident about the formula for ODS, simply because I'd never logged or plotted it before today, but I use the same formula (AB/4) as the TSS and ISS, so I suspect it's correct.
Furthermore, I have no idea if my transmission has an honest-to-goodness ODS
sensor or if that PID's reply is somehow "synthesized" from some other data. I've found confusing and sometimes contradictory information about the sensors on the 5R55E.
Nevertheless, the graphs in the attached image show some things that might be useful to you:
First, ODS is zero (just like TSS and ISS, of course) before the engine is started (i.e. to the left of that vertical blue line labeled "engine start").
Second, once the engine is started (merely idling), ODS clearly jumps up (goes briefly off-scale, in fact) then settles down to about 3200 rpm (assuming my decoding formula is correct). So your live data showing 4000+ rpm is reasonably plausible.
The point in my ODS graph after that, where it quickly drops from 3200 to 0, is where I switched from (idling in) "Park" to "Reverse". There's a little "blip", going above zero RPM, where I back up a short way, then a spike as I go from "Reverse" to "Drive".
After that, ODS more-or-less follows both TSS and ISS up to the point where, unlike TSS and ISS, ODS drops sharply to zero RPM for a stretch near the right side of that graph. Presumably, this is where I'm in the highest gear.
Hope this info is somewhat useful. Good luck with your diagnosis!
