Good afternoon,
Does anything else not function?
Does the transmission work correctly?
The sensor has no voltage to it. It generates a voltage to the ECM.

Okay, good chance the dash cluster itself has failed internally.
To confirm, I would have someone with a scan tool see if they can monitor the speed on there scan tool.
If they can, the cluster is bad.
If they cannot, it sounds like a wiring harness issue.
