they could b referring to the vehicle speed sensor, which senses vehicle speed for input to ur ecm and not to ur speedometer. u most likely have 2 sensors with almost same name. their located on ur trans, an some sense input shaft speed an the others sense output shaft speed..... good luck hope this clarifies it for u a little bit
if im not mistaken there is usually only one but there can be as many as 4 but its a safe bet on the cavalier thats its only one its located on the exhaust usually on the pipe in front of the resinator or catalytic converter. you may have to get under the car in order to see it.
Hyundai VSS locations: On 1999-2003 vehicles, the vehicle speed sensor is built into the
speedometer. On 2004-2005 vehicles, the vehicle speed sensor is attached
to the output shaft of the transaxle.
On 1996-2003 vehicles, the
vehicle speed sensor is built into the speedometer. On 2004-2005
vehicles, the vehicle speed sensor is attached to the output shaft of
the transaxle.

Check the VVS (vehical velocity sensor) "speed sensor", The vss controls shifting and cruise control as well as speedometer. If the Cavalier shift's fine and cruise control work, the it's going to be a good chance that the speedometer n the instrument panel may have a bad connection or the stepper motor needs to be replaced. Get a service book and attempted to check for voltage going to speedo cluster( at dash), to determine if your stepper motor is bad and replace the motor or the whole instrument panel. Good luck and thank you for using fixya.
sounds like a faulty output speed sensor in trans..on driver's side of trans,screws into front of transmission..fairly inexpensive part..let me know what you find
when some one replaced the oil filter which is hard to get to, they knocked off the connection to the vehicle speed sensor .i have seen this at least a dozen times.
