pulling tranny, speed sensor

[idkiliketurbos]

Well i'm pulling my tranny due to my clutch hydraulics working but it won't dissengage so i'm taking it apart and hopefully its just a throw out bearing or fork. Anyways, I am reading up and it says there is a bolt holding the speed sensor on, and the only thing I can find that seems to be the sensor, has a plastic clip on the top and I can't find any bolts that hold the speed sensor to the tranny. Is this correct or am I going to break something?

The speed sensor is a long black plastic stalk and is located toward the firewall and would be beneith the throttle body (that area anyway). There is a single screw holding down the assembly into the transmission.

There is another sensor towards the back side of the tranny by the wheel (still located on the engine bay side) and that is the reverse light sensor.

Yeah I got the reverse one out, but the speed sensor seems to maybe have a bolt on it, but I can't get a socket on it because there is something RIGHT next to the bolt head and yeah, socket won't go on it.

Just unplug it.

Alright, I just don't want it to snap in the removal process.
