Default Lexus IS200 2002 speedo odo not working, fuel needle jumpy

I replace the ABS module since it was dodgy, abs and traction works fine now but the speedo needle is dead and the odometer isn't changing.. the fuel gauge needle is jumpy. Help!

Auto or Manual? Auto speedometer is driven by ABS, where as a manual trans car is driven by the speed sensor on transmission.

Automatic, so I switched it back to the old module, TRC OFF light is on the whole time I drive but speedometer, odometer and fuel consumption gauge all working but Traction control is not working.

So, today I put the new module in again, with hopes that the needles work but nothing. Car runs well and the traction kicks in but speedo needle still on 0, odo not clocking kilometres and fuel consumption gauge (L x 100) is just dead but fuel gauge isn't jumpy anymore. That's the only positive (I guess)

im supposed to be selling this car as well! I'm moving on Saturday and I can't sell it like this

This video explains the 3 simultaneous symptoms others have had and shows the process of how it’s fixed. Hope this helps everyone who may run into this issue.
3 issues are:


1. 1. speedometer not moving

2. 2. odometer digital display is blank

3. 3. shifting is erratic while trying to accelerate
