I think you found it. See

of a '94 Civic SCC and DLC.

The VSS is mentioned both under Fuel System and Electrical System in the
'94 service manual. I have never seen the '93 manual. Testing at the VSS
connector is described in the Electrical section of the manual, page
23-140 (or 1080 of 1258) at
http://www.hondahookup.com/manuals/USDM_92-95_civic.zip.

Looks simple. Just heed the warning about the small drive link that is
easy to loose.
