If the odo works but the speedo does not that tells me its your speedo head plain and simple. The odo operates off the same signal at the back of the cluster. I find it hard to believe that changing the cluster did nothing, unless you had different results with different clusters.

It is definitly a connection issue, possibly a ground like your thinking.
