Electric speedometer not working

Electrical problem
1986 Jaguar XJS V12 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 73,000 miles

Where is the fuse for the spedometer so that I can see if that is my problem. I have replaced the speedometer generator on the transmission and that made no differrence. Nothing is working, except the light.

I sure would appreciate any help of ideas that you could give me.

I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM,BUT MINE WAS SOLVED BY RE WIRING THE CONNECTIONS TO THE TRANSDUCER SWITCH ON THE GEARBOX.THE FUSE COVERING THE SPEEDO IS #4,BUT IT ALSO COVERS THE BACK-UP LIGHTS,SO IF THESE ARE WORKING ,THE FUSE IS FINE.
