Those usually connect to the transmission in some way. The internals of the cable could have failed or there's a solenoid on the transmission that has failed. Try and get any diagnostic codes read from the Engine computer too. Good luck!

The cluster in the the car, is standalone,
its just a display and has self test you can do.
http://www.fixkick.com/Jeeps/jeeps.html#cluster

Check both cluster fuses in the fuse box yet?
one is power other is memory.

if that test passes, and you
THEN PCM, did you scan it yet? (any modern $10 scan tool works here) can-bus rated, scan tools are Ubiquious now.
not scanning the car, and missing can-bus errors is bad idea.
or missing PCM can't talk to the display(cluster) misses the boat.
or VSS errors, or any TCM errors, or other errors, DO SAY THEM.


the PCM sees RPM or the engine can't run , with dead cam or crank sensors. so right off the bat I know PCM is sending RPM .(tacho)

the speed can be checked with any scan tool made (rpm /speed)
plug in scan tool and drive, and have helper read the PID called, SPEED . (vss speed) cheap tools can do live data stream.
on ANY PID. (pids are live parameters by number)

do not guess. here, scan it first.
or go broke.

Took apart the dash in a jeep grand cherokee 94 put it back together and now the speedometer wont work but everything else is fine

remove again the dash. in the position of the speedometer, you can see a cable that is quite thick, as thick as a normal coaxial cable that can be seen behind your TV. attach this first at the back of the speedometer before reinstalling the dash.

The speedometer on my 2002 Grand Cherokee Jeep stop working?

I believe your speedometer works off of a sensor either in the wheal or transmission, check this first then check your speedometer, sometimes they go bad and you have to replace the entire dash.
