Swapped sensors on Elantra

The 2007 and later Hyundai Elantra uses two individual sensors to detect the rotational speed of the transaxle’s input and output shafts. The part descriptions as “Input” and “Output” are based upon their use in previous Hyundai models. However, the sensor applications are reversed for the 2007 and later Elantra. NOTE: The two sensors are not interchangeable.
