Distance measuring device install

Hello all,

I have a 2015 F150 that I use for measuring distances for sign placement etc. In order to make this device work it must be tied to the OSS. Previously this was installed on a Silverado. The wire for this on on top of the tranny. I've looked all over but don't find it on this model. Have read online OSS is internal on Ford. Was also told that the OSS sensor can be accessed from the PCM under hood but such a tight fit cannot see how to tie in it here. Is there another?easier location I can tap into the OSS so this device works properly?

Thanks,

Welcome to the forum. Take a look at post 2 here. Looks like 6R80 output shaft sensor is part of the lead frame on the trans/valvebody.

Not sure how you would tap into this... Might need a pinout of the harness
