Welcome to Allpar. No cable. The speedometer is electronic.
You might try an instrument cluster self-test by holding the trip odometer button in while the key is off, then roll the key on while still holding the button in. Release the button and watch the gauges and lights go through their test. If the cluster has the ability to drive the speedometer needle, it will.
If the speedo is still dead, there may be broken solder joints or bad speedo terminal connections to the circuit board. A fist thump on the top of the dash may get it working again (temporarily) if this is the problem.
It may also be a failed instrument cluster assembly.
