How do you check and see if the speedometer sensor is working or if it s the instrument cluster that's bad?
One method to checking if the speedometer sensor in the vehicle is working is to simply remove it from the housing and attaching the main wires to a volt meter and set it to AC settings. This will allow the technician, or vehicle owner, to determine if the sensor is functional by the frequency emitted, at which point it can be determined if the device is functioning properly or not.

Could be the speed sensor or another common problem with neons is broken solder points on the instrument cluster circuit board. To test it, see if your cruise control can keep you at speed.
