So, the truck listed above is my mother's truck (crew cab) and the speedometer hasn't worked in over a year after the transmission was rebuilt. After she had check around someone said it something somewhere might not be plugged and after finally looking for myself there is a broken connector on the transmission but unsure which connection or sensor it goes to if any has a diagram of that harness with the sensor would much appreciated or which sensor it could possibly be.

Hi,

It's hard to tell but I don't think that is broken. It appears to be a joint connection for ground. Are all wires going to it black?

There is an output speed sensor on the side of the transmission. I attached a pic below. Check to make sure that it is connected.

Let me know.
