1989 Toyota Camry Speedometer question

There is probably a simple solution to this problem, but I would like to get some advice before I start pulling things apart.

My son and I did a road trip recently to look at a car he wanted to buy. It was about a thousand mile round trip. We didn't drive at any excessive speeds. About halfway back the speedometer stopped working. I haven't gone under the hood yet to find the problem, mostly because of my work schedule. My first thought, of course, is a speedometer cable problem, but I wondered if there might be an electrical component such as a blown fuse.

Advice would be appreciated. I'm not too proud to admit that my shade tree mechanic days are far in the past.

if speedo and odometer both do not work check the gear on the end of the cable.
Inside transmission 10 mill. bolt head.
