possible problems
1. vehicle speed sensor

Re: speedometer

no codes, you would watch the live data stream to determind what the PCM reads for speed, then use a osilioscope to confirm. you could just use the osilioscope but it would be a little harder. in cases like this, the gauge cluster is the most common problem IMO. if diagonsis is to much, you might be able to find a cheap cluster at a local junk yard.
