I just replaced mine on a 1998 contour 2.2 4cyl. Take the right passenger wheel off , follow the axle until it goes into the transmission (below starter motor), then look towards rear of car/axle 3 inches, look up and it there. One 8mm bolt holds it in. Twist it out, disconnect the wire from the top engine compartment. A speedo gear pulls out of the VSS. You can buy a VSS without the sppedo gear and housing cause you can screw the old housing in the new one. Vss is around $50.
