I looked all day for that but i cant find it and there is a cable and a plug in but the cable wont reach. Its off by like 3 feet away.
You're probably looking at the kick-down cable from the throttle body. Speedometer cables have not been used starting with the '89 models.

I had the same issue on my ‘99 Dakota with the ABS and Parking indicators on and the speedometer wouldn’t engage until around 35mph. I changed out the rear ABS Sensor and the indicators went away but now the speedometer doesn’t work at all. I replaced the Speed Sensor on the transmission and still no speedometer. I’ve checked the fuses in the fuse bus(all good) and I ran a gauge test and all the gauges worked fine. Any idea what else it could be? Thanks

Hello,
It sounds like the anti-lock brake controller is out which the speedometer signal runs through. here is the location so you can change it out.
Here is a video of the job being done on a similar car with instructions in the diagrams below:
