To find it, you'll need to:
1. Identify your transmission type: Check your vehicle's documentation (owner's manual, VIN decoder) or look for markings on the transmission itself.
2. Consult a repair manual specific to your transmission: A Haynes or Chilton manual, or a factory service manual, will have diagrams showing the exact location of the OSS for your particular transmission. These manuals are invaluable for this type of task.
3. Look near the transmission tail housing: The sensor is typically mounted on the transmission's tail housing, often near the speedometer cable connection point (if it uses a cable). It might be on the passenger side or driver's side depending on your transmission type. It's usually a small, cylindrical sensor with one or two wires connected to it.
Without knowing your transmission type, giving a precise location is impossible. Searching online for "[Your Transmission Type] Output Speed Sensor Location" along with "1999 Dodge 1500" might yield images or diagrams from repair forums. However, relying on a repair manual is the most reliable method.
