You have a loose connection someplace. Banging on the dash is a temporary solve ... and will never fix the problem. One needs to take the instrument cluster out and look for loose wire connections or plugs.

Why doesnt my speedometer in a 92 jeep Cherokee workbut the odometer does. I have replaced the sensor.?

you need to change the speedometer cause if your odometer is counting then speedometer should be working too. make sure your speed gear its working its in the side of the transmission The odometer and speedometer read off of the same signal. If one works, the signal is ok and the other gauge is bad.
