Can you tell me how to replace a speed sensor on the subject vehicle. If you can provide the location of the sensor, that would be great too.
Thank you kindly. Jack

It is located in the output housing of the transaxle and held in by one bolt. After removing the bolt, it will slide right out.

the revolution sensor (speed sensor) is on the top rear of the transmission(looking down on driver side fender) and held by a bolt. remove it and move it too and fro and pry it up with a flat blade screwdriver. . .it does not look like the pic that wrenchtech provided. . .it looks like a bullet without the point.
