Assuming the cable is correctly connected, and engaged in the square drive in the gearbox, then the fault must lie in that drive. You can extract it and see if there is any obvious damage to the Pinion. Item #78 on page FF 6 of the Manual.

Dear BMCECCOSE,
Thanks for your reply,Having read between the lines of your reply (assuming i have connected the cable correctly bit) i thought i would double check. and your were right i had not connected it properly at the gear box end
,So thanks to you i now have a perfectly working speedo.
Your help is appreciated thanks.
