Default 960 Speedo quit but odometer works - ??

Not quite the same issue as the thread below -- the speedometer on my 96 960 wagon quit but the odometer is still working. because i am used to digging into the 850 dash, i am not bashful to do so but curious what might be the issue here. my buddy who is a volvo service writer is scratching his head and a tech is mulling on it. would appreciate ANY ideas before i just start digging in and pulling wires!!!
BTW, is the dashtop removal similar to an 850? lots of reference material on 850s but not much on 960s.
MANY thanks for any thoughts!
UPDATE:
ODO QUIT so i guess that there is a BASIC problem... time to ask for a better understanding of the speedo!

Default

The odometer could be driven from another source. Abs sensor maybe? The speedo from the rear axle.
