Default vss & alt problem

so after i finish my H2b swap in the civic my alternator seems to be on the fritz because the battery light stays on untill i rev it up past 6000 rpms. Now i've tried 3 working speed sensors and checked all the fuses and conections and all seem fine. if the alt is not charging right would this really affect the vss???

What year Civic?

What's wrong with the VSS? Do you have a CEL code for the VSS? Does the speedo work?

Regarding the battery light, your alternator most likely needs to be replaced.
