Speed sensor plugged in?

Pull codes and post results also. The more knowledgeable members will need this.

You need to change the ECU too or the CEL will come on because the ECU that came with the car is still expecting an automatic. But that doesn't mess up the speedometer. :Like Nike said, check the speed sensor plug also check for fuse 15 problem which cuts power to the sensor. If the speed needle bounces around but the odometer keeps rolling properly the problem is the speedometer head itself; the same sensor circuit runs the odometer so it would be OK.
