The solution: remove the top cover of the dash board (snap fit -- just pry it up) then remove the instrument cluster. You'll have to take out 4 screws and the lower right is hard to get to. After that, however, slide the instrument cluster slightly toward the steering wheel to unplug it, and just lift it out.

On the back of the instrument cluster is a printed circuit board. There are two groups of connectors, one on the right the other on the left. The speedometer connection is one of those on the right.

On the back side of the pins for those groups of connections, resolder the pin extensions.

The resoldering of the instument cluster worked for both my speedometer and the other two gauges. I resoldered all 16 points.
