Default Speedometer doesnt work, unless you hit trip meter reset

SO, my speedometer goes from 0 and then hovers around 40km/s when the car starts, but the cars not moving...

then I hit the trip meter reset button, and the [freak]in thing goes back to normal, zero.. what the hell is going on ?

i want to sell the car and a speedometer that doesnt work sucks lol

Did you try testing your wheel-speed sensor ? or maybe there's a short some where in the line. I would trace the line back and make sure it is not damaged in anyway !!
