More than likely this is a speed sensor issue.

Below you will find the info from the manual on how to replace this speed sensor as I would suggest replacing it.

The way we need to test this is check the voltage that is coming from the speed sensor and make sure there is a power going to the speed sensor.

Here is a guide that will help with this:
