On a 300SDL? the speedometer was cable driven? I was under the impression that all 126's were electronically driven..

There is a connector located just to the right of the accelerator pedal. This connector has a few things in it..among them is the speed signal wire and the reverse lights...these both come up from the transmission, in a 560SEL i was working on..this connector was taken apart...the odo/speedo/backup lights did not work.. i would check that..
