There is a very small set screw that holds the brake sensor in place, but it looks like someone put something else in there. I'm not sure what the deal is there. You can get a new sensor from bigdogpartskingpin.com, but it looks like that one is in pretty good shape. Do you still have the magnet in the brake lever? Maybe it is missing or needs replaced.

Yes they are alternating I had some moister in the Speedo from washing the bike. could that be the reason? The needle goes the the middle when I start the bike and stays there then goes below zero and back to the middle. I don’t know what’s going on lol

Yeah, I'd say that is a possibility. Give it a couple days to dry out and see what happens.
