Error Codes 42 and 43

If its the one I'm thinking of then its on the back of the instrument panel, the TSRM should have something on it in the cruise control section.

Good luck.

I looked but no luck theres not a good picture of where it is. My ecu threw a code 42. and My speedometer quit working. Where does a ecu get a signal of how fast the vehicle is going. I dont have ABS, whats the purpose of this sensor.

Well if your speedo cable is broke then it wont spin the speedometer and then it wouldn't send the signal to the speed sensor, I could see how that could fool the ECU in thinking the sensor was bad.

I think the sensor is mainly for the cruise control. It should be labeld on the back of the instument panel.

Good luck.
