Abstract
A vibration damping feature for a sensor assembly, particularly a variable reluctance position sensor including a spool assembly, a harness assembly mechanically and electrically joined to the spool assembly, and a cap which sealingly encloses the spool and harness assemblies. The vibration damping feature preferably is in the form of a plurality of crush ribs provided on the periphery of an upper disk of the spool assembly adjacent the joints. The crush ribs contactingly abut the cap sidewall so as to positively locate, in a fixed relationship, the spool assembly relative to the cap adjacent the joints.
