Your speedo cable has like a spring wire inside that hooks into the tranny. Id drain your tranny fluid and then unplug the speedo cable and replace the cable. Only due this if you have never changed your tranny fluid, then buy a new speedo cable for $25 shipped off ebay and make sure its plugged in behind the cluster. More then likely your cable just went bad. While your at it id check the rear tranny seal and put amsoil back into the tranny.

dude, you can get a whole new complete cable assembly from napa for less than $20. i replaced mine on my 10AE without a problem. make sure you have a good center section before you go replacing the cable. pull the cluster and check for a good tight connection there.

iv checked the cable and the spring inside of the black sleeve it is good its not the cable im thinking that it is the gear drive assembly in the trans and im wondering if there is a way to check this before i go buy a new one. has anyone ever heard of many gear drives going out?
