what sensors plug into an 86 suzuki samurai transmission?

One is your reverse light switch and the other closest to the rear of the transmission is the 5th gear switch.

Well yes it will still run, but reverse lights won't work and since the Samurai has an electronic carb and a PCM to control it (unless you have removed it and have an aftermarket carb) you will loose some fuel efficiency because the PCM will not know when you are in 5th gear to make small adjustments to the carb for efficiency, is about all.

I own a mostly restored 87 Samurai Hard top, I know what the wires are for and the parts are called I have had to replace them on mine when I put in the new transmission.

Hi Brenda. without the proper schematics i can only guess. but here's my best...

one connection is for the reverse lamps. should be 2 wires, and are engaged when the shift mechanism trips the reverse gear.

the other one is for the output speed sensor. also should be a 2 wire connector. it's going to send an a/c voltage to the computer based off a reluctor wheel, that transmits vehicle speed.
