The VSS is located on the passenger side of the trans case. You may need to splice in a new VSS connector as that seems to be the major problem with them. From what I have seen, most of the time the wire breaks a few inches from where it plugs in to the sensor. They are available at a GM dealer or a Delco supplier. But while you are right there, take the sensor out and see if there is excessive debris on the magnet. If so, you may have an internal problem.

I agree. I had the same issue on my Aurora. Changing the VSS sensor did nothing, but fixing the wires at the connector did the trick.
