AboutSkip Bollinger Expertise Heretofore, I will NOT answer any mechanical question. I am not qualified and can only offer speculations. You are better served by others that are true Techs. With that being said, please only ask about parts and locating obsolete Auto Parts. Thank you.
I have the ability to locate quite a few mechanical parts for American made vehicles fron the 1900`s to present. Some are OEM and some are aftermarket. This would include engine, brake and chassis parts. Body parts and trim are VERY difficult to find but you may inquire.
If you need assistance in repair, I have illustrated books for major American manufacturers that show some illustrations BEFORE 1974. If needed, I can supply repair manuals for your specific vehicle.
PLEASE REMEBER I'M A PARTS SPECIALIST, NOT A TECH!! Thank you..

Question where is the exact location of the speed sensor on a 99 chevy lumina?
Answer Sandy,
To all who have questions pending with me, I'm sorry. My Mother fell last Monday and broke her pelvis. As you can imagine, it has been a hell of a week. She is 84. That is why it is taking me so long to respond. Mom comes first and I hope you understand. Now to your question.
It makes a difference if the engine is a 3.1 or 3.8 but location should be the same, just different Vehicle Speed Sensors. You didn't ask for an ABS Vehicle Speed Sensor so I'm guessing a bit here. It is located in the Transaxle (front wheel drive transmission).
To view a photo of the actual part, you can go to:
www.BwdBrand.com. This is Borg Warner's web site. Once there, click on "Catalogs" and then "Part Number Lookup". In the box, type in "S8046" to view that part number. It is for the 3.1. Then click on the back screen button and type in "S8367". This is for the 3.8.
They both look the same but I'm sure have different resistance in the internal windings.
The transaxle should not have that many electrical connections going to it so it should be pretty easy to see with a good flashlight or drop light.
Again I'm sorry but, like I said, Mom comes first. I hope this helps and good luck.
