Icon6 b16a and LS vss compatability?

i have a 99 b16a and the vss was bad.
i swapped in my 98 gsr vss just to see if that was the problem and it worked.
i also have a 98 LS vss that i was going to put in the b16.
so when i put it in, it didn't work (and i know it works cuz it came off of a running/working car).
i coulda swore i read somewhere that they're the same/compatible.
once i swapped back in the gsr vss the speedo worked again.
any ideas on whats the matter.
are these not compatable?
thanks.

heres a pic of the sensors: (left:LS ; right:gsr )

I used a ys1 ls vss on my y1 b16 tranny. it didn't work at first but then noticed that the cable that goes into the vss wasn't in all the way. you have to push a little harder
