This may be a fairly universal part. Try looking on Amazon under treadmill speed sensor. That’s how I found mine for a pace master. It looks like this:

Unfortunately it may be difficult to find parts for that model. FitnessRepairParts shows both parts as being no longer available on the equipment page for the TX5.0RC, which may mean that the original vendors no longer produce that part :(
I suppose you could try eBay or Craigslist or FitnessForums.net and hope you get lucky finding someone with extra parts or a discarded machine. You can also sometimes find things on google.com/products. You can also search for a fitness service provider in your area to seek out more professional recommendations.

Look for 2 small wires molded together that come from the vicinity of the front roller, or the front of the motor. Those are the wires to the sensor. They may be routed under the frame and may only visible when the bottom panel is removed.

It is a simple magnet and Hall effect transistor if you have 2 small wires. It usually attaches to the 1/8 inch mini plug. You can test it with an analog meter, the resistance will be stable at rest, and with treadmill in motion, the resistance will change as the magnet passes the hall effect switch. moving the track at slow speed manually will be enough to see the needle move. Speed is calculated off of the rate of those pulses.
