Electrical/Transmission Question

[squeak_cg]

Can anyone tell me what the electrical harness that attaches by the speedometer gear on the transmission is for. It has two wires. Thanks for any replies or suggestions.

If its on the speedo gear, its for the VSS, if its a black plug that goes on the two prongs on the tranny, thats for your reverse lights
