Silverado Speedometer/odometer failure

The used 2000 Silverado I bought about a month ago now has a speedometer and odometer problem... Yestarday while driving home from work I noticed the Speedometer would be on 0 until I hit about 40 km/h it would then sort of bounce around, it then stop working all together. This morning when I left for work it started to work when driving out of my driveway, but quickly started to jump and then fell to 0 and never moved again... My odometer stopped working also.

What could my problem be...cluster, cable (cable need to be lubricated)?

Any help would greatly be appreciated..

Thanks

Sounds like a bad connection to the VSS (vehicle speed sensor), you don't have a cable, it's all electronic.

Once I sent the message I realised the cable idea was stupid.

Where do I find the the VSS connection. Do you have or know where can I find the schematics...

Or could you give me a brief description on how to find it.

Thanks for the help. I would like to try the VSS connection before I have to bring my truck to the Chevy dealer
