I have a 1999 Dodge Grand Caravan and I need to replace the Vehicle
Speed Sensor. I bought the part, but am unable to find where it goes. I
am pretty new to repairing my own vehicle so if you know where this
part is please be very descriptive. Thanks in advance.

I have a 97 dodge grand caravan, so I am going by what the manual says
for this year, but I would *think* that it is located in the same place....
It is where the transaxle is.. the proceedure says as follows:

1) remove harness connector from sensor. Make sure wetherseal stays on
harness conector.
2) Remove bolt securing the sensor in the extention housing.
3) Carefully pull sensor and pinion gear assembly out of extention housing.
4) Remove pinion gear from sensor.

To Install:

1) reverse the proceedure... make sure extention housing and sensor flange
are clean prior to installation. ALWAYS use a new sensor o-ring.
2) Tighten bolt to 7 N-m (60 in lbs) tighten speedometer cable to 4 N m
(35 in lbs).

It sounds like it is where the speedo cable goes into the transaxle....
