Default Gearbox speed sensor

Any ideas on where this is? Need to replace it as the speedo isn't working all the time.

I think a lot of the gurus are away - the forum is pretty quiet. Try a PM to Goran and Adrian

What fault does it throw up and does it give a sensor reference?

I'm trying to sort out stuff for our holiday so a bit time short but if its definitely attached to the gearbox I should be able to find a PDF of the location and potential part number

It's on the transmission, passenger's side, just above and slightly ahead of the axle output shaft.
