By saying it doesn't work, do you mean as in the digital figure "0" still comes up but does not chance as you speed up? or the whole digital screen does not turn on?

If the whole screen don't turn on then it probably is most likely a behind the dash problem. If it is not changing but still on, then it may be the wiring at the speed sensor on the tranny box, or as you said, the back of the cluster. Check the wiring at the box if it is easier for you to get to it, if not then do the cluster, which ever is easiest at first :P

phong =P~
