I have a 99 gt manual and my CEL came on so i had a friend put a computer on it to see what codes were coming up and i got a P0340 camshaft position sensor A bank 1 malfunction and P0500 vehicle speed sensor A malfunction. When i rev the engine it will go up to 4k and then cut out. I checked the resistance on the cam sensor and it was within limits and the air gap was fine as well. I know the speed sensor is on the trans but unsure exactly where. How can I test the speed sensor. If anyone has any ideas of what to check for please let me know.

I checked the resistance earlier and it is within spec. So I just went and pulled the harness from the ecu and checked the wires for and shorts and there were none. Is it possible that if the speed sensor is bad it could cause the cam sensor code to show up. I know they are completely different sensors but I don't know how the ecu processes the signals.
