In most cars, the vehicle speed sensor is located
in the tail shaft housing of the transmission. This is
where the axle comes out on the passenger side
of the trans. On front wheel drive cars. Best
viewed from under the car.

Is there like a picture so that I can show him or so that I can know where its located. It would really help me out if I had a picture to see it.

It should just be an electrical connector and a bolt. Our reference just says "remove".
