Just the speedo or everything in the instrument cluster dead?

I have removed power from many a tj and the radio code is all that's needed.....

what do you mean it doesnt work?
does the odometer still show the original mileage? it has a flash memory and retains the reading regardless if the power supply has been disrupted as in a dead battery, so there is nothing to reset

if the needle isn't working a common problem seems to be a bad connection where the loom connects and plugs into the speedo

that involves removing the speedo assy and unplugging, cleaning the socket pins and reconnecting

there have been a few write ups on that
