W126 Speedometer Question

In my new to me 1980 280SE Euro.
The speedometer won't work most of the time. The odometer also will not work, I fixed the odo on my W115 and I assume it's prolly the same problem.
When I drove the car home from getting it, the speedo started working after about 5 miles or so. I was looking in Fastlane for a speedo cable and right below it I saw a speedometer transmitter. Could this be the part I need instead of the cable? The speedo works after you drive it around awhile, so that wouldn't be indicative of the cable would it?
Also is the cluster removed about the same way as my W115?
I want to try and repair the odometer on this car as well.
Thanks
