I would say that it sounds like a ground issue.
If you search on here there is a thread somewhere about where the grounds are at... but worse comes to worse look for black wires from the negative battery lead, and starter... those are the big grounds....
It also sounds like you have a major clockspring problem, so I'd prolly replace that too.

Well it's really your call there, I'm sure you "can" do it yourself, but I personally do not mess around when it comes to removing and reinstalling my airbag, which is why I'd just pay to have the dealer do it.

Well the Speedo issue might not be related to the clock spring but it is possible I suppose, if they share a ground or power source.
I would attempt swapping with a known working cluster before taking it in for the clock-spring.

Wilson,
If you bought a brand new cluster from the dealer did they install it and program it there as well? If so I would take it back. If it is under 12/12 it should be under warranty. Did you get the cluster to solve the original speedo issue? I agree with the possible ground issue, but you may want to have the dealer take another look, especially regarding a clock spring if thats the direction you are going to go.
