I took a needle off from my gauge cluster and I can't seem to get it back to the factory setting. I would really appreciate any help.

You have to pull the needle off and try to realign it back. The test is just to show if you got it back to factory or not

On the recalibrate link you sent me, it says that I will have a readout on my odometer. The only problem is, I have the older style manual odometer. I'm going to mess with it a little bit more tomorrow. Thanks for your help.

Oh yeah I forgot about that part, sorry about that. I'll do a little more research on it for you and see what I can come up with.
