Hello,

The Vehicle Speed Sensor is located at the lower rear of the transaxle (see diagrams).
In order to replace that sensor you will have to raise the vehicle and support it with stands. Then access it from the bottom of the vehicle.
It can be replaced with using simple hand tools.

Here is a helpful video:

I have attached diagrams for your reference.

Please let me know of any questions.

Thank you.
