Speedometer stopped working, need help

My speedo stopped working yesterday after i hit a large bump that knocked my tire carrier (i have no spare) loose. I think it might hae whacked the speedo drive or wire or w/e. I dunno. Any advise on how to fix a speedo is halpful. Like where the sensor or drive actually is and which wire it is and what to do to fix it.

Yeah, I bet it knocked that VSS sensor silly. If the connection is broke on top of the rear pumpkin, you may have to tie-wrap it in place. I have mine tie-wrapped due to the plastic locking tabs being broke.
