Default Speedo installed, on but guage not working

Hi so I had to mount a new speedo and find a place for it as I have a cafe fairing on my superglide. I followed a fellow forum member's lead and mounted on the mounting bolts for the handlebars and it hangs there and misses the tank by about a 1/4 inch. Perfect! Except my second hand speedo doesnt work. It had the same connector and was a different model number than the one for my 07 but is the same. It comes on, lighted, the little alarm key flashes etc and the ODOMETER works and is clocking miles but the needle doesnt move.

When you start your bike does the needle clock all the way around once or does it bump a little when the key is turned on? Mine doesnt do anything. SO any ideas?
