Might be the speed sensor. We figured out the problem with the speedometer not working. it turns out the brainiacs at General Motors installed the computer without protecting it from the elements. The computer was corroded along with the wires. Luckily the computer was covered under a recall that was on sunfires...and I had to pursuade GM to pay for the wires to be replaced as well... Hopefullly this helps someone who might be in the same boat

Nope, bet it was the other way around... Your speedometer stopped working and your check engine light came on. A broken speedometer (don't know what car so I can't pinpoint it) will cause a whole bunch of codes.

If the speedometer breaks, it effects the odometer. Check the speedometer cable it may be broken, even under the insulation.
