speedometer gears

Somehow I screwed up my speedometer putting the ac hoses back in it. I had to take out the gauge panel and the speedometer wire (I think that's what its called?) That runs from the gauge panel to the transmission had to be disconnected to do so. It wouldn't pop out of the back of the gauge panel so I pulled it from the other way to allow my gauge panel to come out enough to allow enough room to put the ac hoses back in. I guess I ended up disconnecting it from the transmission cause my speedometer doesn't work. Is this a put in the shop thing or could I just get up under there and reconnect it? Does anyone have any advice or anything that could help? It's much appreciated.

It's not a take to the shop type of thing, although it might be a run to the bone yard kind of thing. I would crawl under there and make sure that if it did come out at the transmission end that you aren't loosing fluid.
