What is causing my odometer to stop working while my speedometer is working fine?

I have a 1996 Ford Taurus LX SW with a 3L DOC engine. My odometer and trip meter stopped working but my Speedometer is working fine. The VSS was replaced about a year ago. If it was a bad VSS why would the speedometer still be working? The Odometer readout is the old roll-over type associated with the old cable type of odometer. What is wrong and how do I repair?
