Realistically a 5 min fix (wire) or 1/2 hour tops to replace the VSS. Cost of a new VSS$??? but not more than $50 or so from a wreckers/breakers/junkyard.

I went to Auto zone today relief it was the speed sensor.
Codes are P1500 P0501 hubby would like to know where the locatio on the car is for the sensor to replace it please.
Thank you
