Check your oil Low oil equals low oil pressure which equals no VTEC

VSS Vehicle Speed Sensor Nothing to do with Vtec working that I am aware of

i thought it did but i'm not 100% sure. check your oil level just because that's common sense but if i remember correctly the vss will effect it as well.

Try bringing it to a local honda dealership to look at it. Well, you say your speedometer stopped working and also your vtec isn't activating. So two birds with one stone, switch the VSS and see if that fixes both problems. If not, you can look into it more.
