Default Speedometer is dead

I have a 2002 caravan sport, 3.3. as of last night the speedometer doesnt work. at idle it points almost straight down and then when you turn the van on it jumps uo to just below zero and stays there. the odometer and tach still work. Any suggestions? Thanks

Is the ck engine lite on? If not try unplugging the IOD fuse for a few mins, and plug it back in. Or disconnect the battery.

sorry to take so long to get back here but after looking closer the needle somehow ended up on the bottom side of the pin. What I ended up doing is taking the front of the dash apart and just spun the needle counter clockwise back around and it seems to be good to go! Thanks for the reply.
