If the speedometer readout is "black" all the time than you probably need a replacement cluster.

If your Speedometer always reads zero than the Speedometer sensor in the tranny of the Speedo Buffer Is to blame. ( The speedo buffer is in a little yellow plastic box on the drivers side under the dash or behind the kick panel. )
