Default speedometer help

If anyone knows of whats goin on with my speedometer.. lemme know. Ive replaced the speed sensor on my transmission. And had the ground run up to my battery. I have a 96 formula 6 speed.

What's it doing? Anything at all? Needle bouncing?

When I swapped my T56 for a T56 Magnum, the speedometer read about 2/3 of actual speed. Corrected it with a Dakota Digital SGI-5 universal speedometer interface. Never have to "tune" again if I swap rear wheel height.
