Default Speedometer Help

I have a 97 C5 with the mn6 that I just put a new slave in. The car runs great now. But now my speedometer doesnt work and I cant drive the car because the odometer doesnt work either and that could turn into some serious leagal issues. When I did the job I didn't disconect the battery and I did break the clips off the speedometer sensor on the trans mission but I pluged it in tight and used duct tape (UBC duct spec) to keep it together. Do you think I need a new sensor or other possible causes? Thanks

You need to fix that connector to insure it works. Many things in the PCM depend on the speed reading.
