Speedometer Fluctating help!

So i finally refilled my tranny fluid cause i noticed it was making noise. And after i put in the NEO 75W90HD i took the car out for a spin. It drove alot nicer and smoother but then i looked down at my speedometer and noticed that it was fluctuating between 40 and 60 and i was probably going like 60. It annoys me really bad because i would like to know how fast i am going.

What do you guys think would cause this? The electrical connections or if theres a speed sensor in the tranny and its gone bad from having low fluids.

How much do you guys think it would cost to replace these and is it hard to do?

There is a speed sensor located on the passenger side of the tranny. Check it and its wiring. I don't remember the speedo sensor in fine detail, but the other sensors' wiring is very prone to damage.

It might be easy to replace while on the car, but the cost for a new sensor is $$. Used should be more reasonable.
