Im having problems getting the speedometer to work in my daughter's 1954 Chevy pickup. We replaced the gauge and the cable, but it still didnt work. I can get the gauge needle to work by connecting the cable to a drill, but no luck when its connected to the transmission. I disconnected the cable from the gauge and left it on the transmission and drove the truck and it didnt spin inside the cable. So I know something is wrong on the transmission side.

Anyone know what part can be replaced on the transmission to fix this?
