Default Speed sensor connection gone?

So my check engine light is on because one of the speed sensors is not plugged in. Its the one foreward on the transfercase. I cannot find the wire or where it comes from. Just wondering if anyone can point me in the rite direction.

What's the actual code? The speedometer is installed on the rear of the transfer case. The sensor on the front is just a switch to detect operating range for the 4x4 indicator light. Do you mean the CPS on the bellhousing?

It would help if you stated what year your XJ is, what engine you have and what transmission you have.
