My speedo sensor died the day after my last clutch was put in around five years ago. It was just a coincidence though. Check codes, but actually my dealership couldn't figure out the problem after three hours with their diagnostic computer. My regular mechanics knew like in two minutes. They remembered that two years earlier I had gotten the sensor wet going through a huge wintertime puddle (salt water). I lost my speedo for a few days while it dried out on its own. So the connection plug was all corroded. They spliced in a new plug and replaced the sensor. Voila! All good.
