RESOLVED: Speed sensor needs to be replaced $225 parts and labor.
This is a quote from an actual dealership. Thank goodness it was not
the actual cluster!! The error codes also showed that the Oxygen
Sensor also needed replacing.

Thanks all!

Glad that the problem has been located. That is usually the hardest part of
the job! ;-)
This is the speed sensor inside of the automatic transmission right? So you
will get some new fluid if this is an automatic.
Not bad on the cost of the parts and labor I guess.
But at that price I would think it is only an external sensor on a manual
transmission.

Which is it? auto or manual?
