Default Vss

I got my 6L swap done last night finally. I swapped in another 4wd trans too. I missed my VSS wire. Any idea what its close to? Also, I have a few lights on which I'm sure are from the VSS.
Also, it shifts from 1-2 good, but wont shift 2-3 what gives? The code scanner says shift solenoid, but could this also be caused by the VSS? Thanks

I'm pretty sure your shifts might be messed up by the VSS being disconnected.
Isn't the VSS located on the transfer case?

Yep towards the rear, I cant find any wires I didnt connect though. But the VSS doesnt have one I'm gonna crawl back under there tonight and look a little better.

I mentioned this to my boss. He told me on his wifes Intreped the VSS went out and put the PCM into a "limp mode", and wouldnt let it go past 2nd gear. Hopefully this is the same in my truck.
