Ford Focus 1999 1.6 speedo and traction control light problem

Like many others I am experiencing problems with my speedometer and traction control light in my 1999 ford focus 1.6 Zetec.
At first the speedo would intermittently surge and then stop working, followed by a few moments later the Traction Control light coming on and the odometer clearing to -----. This would correct itself when the engine was turned off and on again.
Now the speedo does not work at all, and after driving a short distance the same problem occurs with the TC and odometer.
I have taken the car to several garages, including Ford. Ford could not diagnose the problem a few months ago and by re setting the computer the problem corrected itself. It reappeared last week when I drove through a puddle!
So far the garages have said it could be either the whole display panel or the Vehicle Speed Sensor.
Any ideas, both fixes are costly and I don't want to pick the wrong one to find that it doesn't fix the problem?!
Many thanks for any help that anyone can offer
