transmission speed sensor

Edit: Odometer reading isnt going up, speedometer isnt working and Im shifting hard. I can not find my speed sensor to save my life. 1992 f150 xlt 5.8L 351 Windsor e4od trans. I am NOT looking for the ABS sensor. My odometer and speedometer went out and I'm shifting hard. Diagrams I've found haven't helped. It isnt on the drivers side of the diff case by the rear axle. Any suggestions?

The ABS sensor is also the speed sensor.

This is the abs sensor. This I've replaced. Not what I'm seeking.

The speed sensor in the rear axle should be the only speed sensor there is on your truck. If for some reason you have the other, it would be on the tailshaft of the transmission or transfer case depending on if your truck is two or four wheel drive. Give it a quick glance, but I don't think you'll find anything there. Have you checked all the fuses?

They stopped using that second sensor in 91.

All fuses are fine, didn't know about them stopping the use of these in 91, so basically I spent 20 bucks for nothing and I'm looking at a PSOM

Do you have any codes stored? It might not be the PSOM. It could be the wiring between the sensor and the PSOM.
