Does Anyone know the location and color of the wire for the SPEED DETECTION CIRCUIT in a 1997 Dodge Ram 1500 Extended Cab Truck? I just installed the Pioneer AVIC-9DVD navigation system in my truck along with a AVX-P7300 and AVM-P800R and the only wire I cannot figure out is the wire for the speed control circuit to finish the installation any help or information would be greatly apreciated

Thanks

Bill

The VSS ( is the vehicle speed sensor lead ) and the 3 pin connector at the transmission or the PCM ( power Control module ) on the passenger side under the dash. POS47 is a piece of sh*t 47 ( just kidding ) I'm not sure what the POS47 is supposed to be fore, but you should be able to find this wire at one of the two locations.

pos47 means Position 47. The plug is normaly numbered, and this means pin 47 in the plug
