I had that problem. It turned out to be the pin that rides inside the VSS#2 on the front diff. It was a simple fix for me, but sometimes the nylon gear inside the diff wears down and the VSS stops spinning losing the speedo and throwing a code for VSS#2.

If it is the nylon gear, if you do not fix it soon, the worn off gear parts will damage your front diff.

Remove the VSS#2 and see if the pin is broken. If it is not broken, jack up the car, put it in neutural, manually turn the wheels and look down where the VSS#2 was and you should be able to see it turn. If it turns, your VSS is shot, if it doesn't then your diff gear is shot.
