This sensor was the easiest to change, so he chose to do that one first, and it happened to be the right choice. As far as the other sensor goes, he didn't have to change it, so I don't know exactly where it is and what is involved in changing it. Hope this helps a little bit.

Hmm... You say the "Vehicle Speed Sensor, which is located on the top of the rear axle", turned out to be the problem.
I own a 1999 dodge Dakota, V6, automatic transmission, and 2 wheel drive. I looked into changing this "speed sensor" as a few other people told me that was most likely the problem. But the speed sensor on mine, at least the one the guy at the dealer sold me for about $20, screws into the transmission. I changed this, and still have the same problem, ABS and BRAKE lights on constantly, and speedometer sometimes works, but other times just falls to 0 and sits there. The speedo problem seems to be worse when I am going under 40mph.
This problem seems to have started when I parked on a hill and applied the parking break, which I rarely need to use. Then upon releasing the brake the lights and speedo problem started!
