One of the main reasons a speed sensor can go bad on a vehicle is the location of where it is placed. Speed sensors are subjected to the elements. Road debris, dirt, water, and other things can hit it while a person is driving down the road. Speed sensors are usually placed near the drive shaft in the rear of the transmission case.
The odometer gets its signal from the speed sensor, so if the (tailshaft) speed sensor is bad then the odometer obviously will not work
