no directions necessary. just unhook the shifter linkage(pry it off with a trim tool or screwdriver). unplug the connector. mark the edges of it with sharpy so taht you know where it's sitting on the trans, there's 2 10mm bolts hokding it on, pull those off, it'll then pull off. then reinstall in reverse order. try and put the new one on in the same spot as the one you took off.

it should take longer to jack the car up then to change the sensor
