the data is captured in the driver information module. If there was no signal from the speed sensors, there's no data input. Real question is why would you want to input two weeks of driving into the system? A car's odometer is probably only accurate within 1-2% at best (variances between tire brands alone can differ that much).

My thinking was that it would effect me getting inspection sticker.

I guess the question is how would anyone know it was missing 2 weeks of driving? A couple of hundred miles at the most? Unless it reading zero now, there should be no problem.
