Just picked up a cherry 2004 Civic LX Sedan 5sp. Has 120k on it but it's pretty mint... that is until I drove it home!

Speedometer stopped working! ALL other gauges and lights work fine, and the odometer turns ove fine too.

When I start moving it just stays at zero mph, but i can see the needle kinda clicking a bit and making a ticking sound that gets faster as the car goes faster.

What could this be?

Thanks ahead

After some searches, some suggest the VSS. I just hooked up a friends OBD2 reader and went for a drive taking live data, and it read vehicle speed just fine so that, combined with the ticking makes me think it is something mechanical...
