I'm sure someone can help with a diagram, but you need to let us know what year and model the civic is.

I didn't know there was a fuse for the VSS. Is this under the hood or under the dash?? What is it called??

Make sure that the plug on the top towards the back of the tranny is plugged in. I know if it is no plugged in till it clicks the speedometer and the odometer will not work.

If you live in the USA, it's 94 E to the H. I doubt you have a RHD, but I could be wrong.
