Are you sure you seated it fully? and the connections were good & clean? I'm not sure where any other sensor might be, but I'd try getting the rear wheels off the ground, hook a DVM up to the VSS sensor, and then put it in gear and rev it up a little. See if you're getting some variable voltage or current. Check for a pinched/nicked/broken wire too.

This is a new one, lucky you...

Just a bit of helpful info, when you start a thread pick something that closely describes your question or information for the topic instead of your user name.

Is the ABS light on, or is the OD light on the shifter blinking?
