Ok guys get ready for this...took my new 98 civic to a shop to just tune everything up (didn't have the time right now to do it muself) when I took it the speedometer was working but now...it's not. He is leaving for vacation so I told him I would just come pick it up and take it back when he returns.

What could be the problem?

happened to mine after i put my clutch and flywheel in. all that happened was i must have pulled on the speed sensor cable and popped it out of the back of the speedometer. i had to pull the dash apart and plug it back in.

I haven't looked yet but you cant jsut reach up in there and plug it back in?

OR

How hard is it to take the dash apart?

It could be a loose cable/wire on the speed sensor on the trans.
