If it does turn out to be that the speedo is bad, it is not difficult to remove and swap the instrument cluster. Th only issue is that your odometer will read whatever the replacement one reads.

That is very strange. If you don't unplug the battery, does it still come on for about 2 minutes when you start the car, or does it remain off until you once again unplug the battery? If the latter is the case, then I would suspect a failure in the drive circuitry for the VFD.
