Does the check engine light come on/stay on?

Is your car throwing a check engine code 17 for vehicle speed sensor?

If the check engine light isn't on, or if you have no code 17 then the actual speedometer cluster/meter set isn't working.

Definitely check for CEL code 17. Are the odometer and tripmeter working? If not, you may have problems with the VSS wires or connector.

I would first check the plug at the VSS. Have seen plenty of them corrode and one of the pins in the plug physically brake off inside the plug. Unplug the VSS, look inside the plug on the VSS and make sure there are 3 pins present. Then take the plug with the wires and turn it upside down so you can see inside it. Make sure there are 3 CLEAN pins there.
