    Does everything else on it work normally?

    Sometimes the fuel gauges stick a bit and its just the needle sticking to the little pin that it rests on. Might be whats happening to your speedo needle

    Try setting your speed alert to 60kph and see if it goes off - if it does and the speedo is not indicating any speed then it may indicate a speedo problem and not a speed sensor problem. If the speed alert also does not detect speed below 70kph then the problem may be with the speed sender unit or a bad connection.
