The only blue and white wire at the speaker harness is for one of the speakers... have you found the VSS yet?? Thanks

This information is for all MKIV VW, and B platform VW and Audi:

Remove one of the rear side panels to access the harness that runs over the hump to the back. You will see a pair of wires that take off from the main harness in the direction of the wheel well. This is your ABS wheel speed sensor. Use the non black wire.

Or

Head to ABS controller on the master cylnder. You will see 4 pairs that are twisted BLACK/ color. Use the Color

Or

Go to top of tranny.....

THe easiest is the rear wheel ABS sensors..... trust me.

Wherever I go, that is where I end up......

I ended up taping into the VSS wire at the computer under the driver-side dash. Thanks
