Broken Speedo

Hey guys! Since I have a V6 I figured it would be ok to post this question in this section. If not and it gets moved I understand completely! So my speedo is broken. Doesn't read anything, just stays at 0 mph and the trip refuses to clock the mileage. Is this a difficult fix and what does it entail? I have to pull the dash off to replace most pieces because the dash is completely shot. Greatly appreciate the help everyone!

Re: Broken Speedo

I believe that means a dead VSS or bad wire. Could also be the gauge itself.
