Default speedometer and cruise control issue

My speedometer for some reason randomly stopped working. I've replaced both the rear speed sensor on top of the rear diff, and I've replaced the output speed sensor on the transmission and still have not seen any improvement!!! Need help ASAP

Follow the connector from both diff and trans through the body. Could be it chaffed and broke. Or pull the gauge cluster and do some voltage testing at the plug.

Have you tried this yet. Mine quits every now and again, a quick wiggle and it's fine.
