Hello and thanks for donating

your VSS should be mounted on the transaxle and have two wires running to it, one being grey/black and the other pink/orange. Both of these wires will run straight from the powertrain control module, which is located at the right rear of the engine compartment, mounted in the firewall.

Here is a diagram detailing where many things are. #5 is your vehicle speed sensor. Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.

Hello -

The VSS is at the rear center of engine compartment, mounted on transaxle

Check fluid and suspect tranny problem
speed sensor located at the far right of the tranny
by the right axle (on the tranny )

Need enginge size and # of valves? But it's on the transaxle. Unscrew bolt and remove.

Not to step on toes.

Hello dwakefield13,

What exactly is your vehicles problem.

There are 2 VSS -

One is called a Turbine Shaft Speed Sensor - Located - Left rear lower side of engine compartment, on rear side of transaxle.

The is the VSS - Located - Rear center of engine compartment - mounted on transaxle.

The transaxle is located on the driver side. If you look down under the air intake tube tou will see it or look for your Transmission Fluid Dipstick and look down there. Wish I had a good pic to post for you. Maybe merlin2021 has one to post.

I have found that if you buy and look at the part you will find it.

The converters on a V6 is part is the Y-pipe, so remove the pipe and the clamp at the extension pipe, be careful with the flex part! Too much flexing and it will break.
