Which speet sensor?
Vehicle Speed Sensor- Located in the left side of the transmission tail housing
Wheel Speed Sensor (Rear ABS)- In the differential housing
Wheel Speed Sensors (4wheel ABS)- Sensor on each front wheel, one in diff housing
(or each rear wheel, depending on application).

I believe its the vehicle speed sensor. Thats what it said on the
scanner but I will have to double check. I hope its something easy to
pop out and put a new one in.

A point for the archives: A sensor cannot be 'reset', Only the code
resulting from the PCM seeing a discrepancy can be reset.

The VSS is run off a gear on the output of the transmission. In RWD, it
will be located on the 'tailshaft' housing. On FWD, often right above the
left side axle drive.
Always inspect the wiring to the VSS as that is frequently the problem.

Thank you for the info. I do understand that it cannot be reset. I took
it to a local auto parts dealer and they do free check engine light
diagnostic. I will have to go back and double check it again to make
sure it is the vehicle speed sensor code. I did take the code and look
it up on internet when I had it but I have forgotten it since then.
