    If your CC still works, then the VSS is likely OK.

    A friend with a '98 5-lug has this issue for years. It turned out to be a
    faulty cluster. A speedo-repair shop in town was able to fix it. I removed
    the cluster, and took it to them. I think it cost around $150.

    Could it be a fuse? If I remember correctly, my first new Toyota was a 93 and had the same issue as well as the power windows quit working. Been many beers ago but I think that was the issue.

    Edit. It actually would have been on my 94 forerunner that had the issue.
