Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) needs to be replaced. It is located on the rear end. Unplug, remove, replace, plug in - good to go.

Try just wiping it off too. It is actually magnetic and some of the filings may be stuck to it causing it to malfunction. If it solves the problem them kepp the money, if not then you can still replace it and you are no worse off.
