Default Speedometer problem...

The speedometer don't work on my 1993 Camaro Z28 Auto, does anyone know what it could be? I already replaced the speed sensor and still I get nothin. All the other guages work... when the car is started the speed needle goes up but it just stays at 0. Anyone? All help will be appreciated. Thanks

I can't remember if those cars have it, but assuming the wiring isn't damaged, you might want to check the speed buffer. They are usually located under/in the dash area.
