Abstract
In an embodiment, a speed sensor includes a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion. The first portion includes a sensing assembly for generating a signal associated with a movement of an object external to the speed sensor. The second portion includes a wiring harness for transferring the generated signal to a device external to the speed sensor. The first portion and the second portion are joined. The third portion is over-molded over a point of the speed sensor where the first portion joins the second portion. Over-molding the third portion at the point may act to seal the point from outside contaminants. Moreover, over-molding the third portion at the point may act to strengthen the speed sensor at the point.
