Speed sensor

There is a reed switch in the speedo that outputs a pulse to the ECU.
AFAIK it is only used to activate a speed cut on some models. If the
signal is missing it throws a fault. For what its worth, I ran my car with
the speedo cable disconnected a couple of times, and didn't notice any
change in performance, and don't remember getting a CEL.
