What Wires?

There a reverse light switch on the '97 trans but the trans harness
will include the wires for the '97's Cat monitor.

The 1993 trans will have a sensor that's MISSING on the '97 trans
you can ignore it or you can swap over the top cover of the trans.

Just make sure the both transmissions are in neutral before you remove the top covers.

The 97 will be a 5R55E or a 4R55E, the 93 is a A4LD. No go on the swap.

The 97 speed sensor is somewhere in the brake system (ABS?) i believe. The 93 sensor plugs into the T-case. Somehow you are going to have to plug that hole, perhaps cut off the speedo cable at the sensor and leave it in there? The oil in the T-case can come right out of there or crap will fall in there if you dont.

You just need a VSS to shove in the hole in the 1993 T-case.
