Default Speedo don't work?

Speedometer don't work on a '92 I'm thinking of going to look at. Seller says the automatic trans was rebuilt and they either broke or didn't put the speed sensor back right. Is this just a cable coming out of the trans they may have kinked or something?
Any ideas what it might take to repair something like this? Or is it possible that it's something behind the dash and has nothing to do with the rebuild?
Thanks in advance for any help on this.

Hard to say without tearing into things, if seller says is was broken I'd tend to believe that, if it was a simple electronic fix I would think he might have tried to repair it.
