Answer
Wal,
On your specific vehicle and year, I'm not sure.  But typically there are just a few wires that even connect to the transmission housing.  You'll see a thing cable that connections to a plastic housing attached to the transmission, usually held on by 2-4 screws or small bolts.  For most specifics, you should reference a service manual or search for article online.
Good luck!
