As i have no details on the US stuff I am much confused. The 2 wire sensor is unlikely to be a Hall effect sensor, as a voltage must be supplied and would indicate 3 wires. When a Legacy trans. is used as an SVX replacement, is the sensor changed for a 3 wire SVX TCU? I have never seen this mentioned and presumed that a change was not required.
