Might want to test the sensor as it may be bad even though you mentioned that it had been replaced.

The video shows how to test the rear differential speed sensor with a multi-meter. If the old sensor worked, might want to re-install it to see if it restores the speedo function.

Test continuity of the wires for the sensor, also, verify you are getting five volts TO the sensor.
