This means the cluster is bad or unplugged because the vehicle speed sensor is in the speedometer. Can you check to see if there is any corrosion on the connector from water damage?

Makes sense because the speedometer is not working. I replaced the cluster out of one I had in my garage and the codes are gone and the speedo works again. Thanks for your help.
