Default Speedo needle was just working. Now its not

So i just took off the riceer cluster cover that came with the car, to reveal the OEM cluster. The speedo was working when I had the ricer crap on.

Now it doesnt tell me how fast im going.

Yes its plugged in properly
Yes I cleaned the plug out with air spray
Still no go


Any ideas guys. The ricer cluster cover was wired so it can light up blue. i took out all those wires. I tried the speedo with the wires, nothing. then i took the wires out, still nothing. So I dont think that factors in.

Thanks guys

where/how was the cluster rigged up?
when you removed it, how'd you take out the wires? somehow during removal you must've disconnected it. Recheck the wiring

There are 3 plugs for my car. left, middle and right. the the left and right one are for the temp gauge and gas gauge. and the middle one is for the speedo. I plugged them all in correctly after re-installation

you have any pics of it? test if you are getting power to the speedo? its possible that one of the wires is broken inside or frayed, have you popped fuse 15 (i think its fuse 15) as this will make it not work.
