Why? You can't drive without a speedometer?

It's probably a bad dash cluster but it needs to be diagnosed properly.

I can drive with out the speedometer but dont want to take the chance of getting pulled over and getting a ticket. plus it is for my son and i dont want him driving the car until i get it fixed, thats what i was thinking thats its the dash cluster. if it is im out of luck because they dont make that part anymore. and if i take it somewhere to get it worked on its going to me about $500 dollars to get it fixed. but thanks for your help

Yep, those old digital dashes were more headaches than they were worth.
