Can't find the speed sensor so that it can be replaced, it is not where the book says it is on the transaxle - where could it be? I could not read the answer from a simular question posted.

I can not find the vehicle speed sensor on the left transaxle. I do not see anything that looks like the part that I purchased. What would it be near?

Ok try this, take the battery out then take the battery tray out. There will be a black sensor on top of the transmission on the back. Its a 10mm bolt, then it lifts out.

2.0L non-turbo? If so then yep thats it. You have input and output sensors both on the side of the transaxle though so should still have found something on transaxle.
