its on the top of the trann there are wires going in to it with a gary plug on it, all you need to do is take a 10mm and undo the one bolt holding it down, then unplug the plug, and pull out the speedsensor, slowly turn it left and right a little to get it out and there you go.

buy a new one dont go to a junk yard i have gotten 5 and not one has worked

Your spedometer could be off because you purchased the wrong tire size...
