Help 94' Dakota

tjmac1

94' Dodge Dakota , Manual Trans, V6. Speedometer not working. I replaced Speed Sensor, but still no needle movement. I pulled the instrument panel out, but couldn't find any connection behind the speedometer. What do I do next?

There is no direct connection behind the speedo. Those are electronically controlled on the Dakotas.
The VSS goes directly to the PCM. which calculates the speedometer value and sends it the
instrument cluster controller on the CCD bus which controls the electromechanical speedometer

I have a "93" Dakota, man, tran, V6 (4x4) ........... if it's like mine, there's a tachometer at the left.
Is the Tach, working?
