Speed sensor

This is what happen, I was drag racing last week and the car would not shift in 3rd the first run. ths 2nt runn thae car would not shift into 2nt without lifting off the gas. I loged my runs with free scan and found tht my MPH showed 5 MPH at 6200 RPM, and now my ABS light comes on at startup. The MPH on free scan jumps around on startup, any ideas? Where is the speed sensor that goes to the computor located?

Was your speedometer working?

The VSS is what gives your computer info to calculate the speed.
