Speedometer Problem

I have a 1997 F-150 with an automatic transmission. The speedometer has recently started acting up. The needle starts bouncing after two or three miles and the transmission will shift up and down way too much. If I put it in first or second the shifting stops and I can continue on at a slower speed.

I replaced the speed sensor on the transmission tail shaft but that didn’t change anything.

What else should I look at?
