Thanks for your help. It really looks clear now and explains this
strange behavior of the wan. Other respondents also agree that this is
output speed sensor. One additional question: is this part easy
for a lay person to replace?
And also: a friend of mine mentioned that some of this auto parts have
manufacturer warranty, which sometimes covers quite a number of
years. Is it worthwhile checking that this one has such a warranty?
The car is 1999 T&C.
Thanks again,
