Default SPEEDOMETER NOT WORKING AFTER LS VTEC SWAP???

Ok guys, my speedo was working before with my old gsr motor. Now with the new ls vtec turbo swap. Everythin works on cluster except speedo. Speedo doesnt move at all. We try using another vss and still doesnt budge. What could be the problem guys?? It is annoying without speedo especially with the power im pushing

You're SURE its not the VSS?

Check your grounds.

Sounds like the VSS through and through. Especially since you say the odometer doesn't work.

Its not the p28 ecu, because im using my friends p28 borrowing since it has hondata and my other p28 doesnt work. Come on guys its not my cluster because it was working with my old gsr swap. It started not to work with my new ls vtec motor with different gsr tranny itr lsd. Where is the fuse for speedo located??

just things to cancel out.. it really could be something stupid though.. anyway, look in the plug where the pins are.. clean it out. if the ECU fuse was a dud, the car wouldnt start.. speedo fuse, i dont know of one. seriously, the only things i could possibly think it could be is:
-VSS
-ECU
-Cluster
-plug on harness

thats it.. there are only so many things.. re-check them all, maybe you missed somehting.
