If fluid level OK and OD lost, suddenly, does the solenoid on the OD click when power applied? Does the dash light come on?

The speedo and the OD lost are two separate occurances that just happen to occur at the same time. That is if you can move in gears one through four.

The speedo is driven of a gear jammed on the output bell of the OD. Inside this bell is the driven race of the Sprague clutch for gears one through four and the annulus gear of the planetary set for OD. As long as the car moves in or out of gear, the bell is turning since it is atteched to the driveshaft.

Yes, the speedo gear is changeable without the OD being removed from the vehicle. Just remove the clamp from the OD and the carrier and gear will be removable.
