reset them how?? I think you have to put them in the position that they are when the vehicle is off and make sure not to press down on them to hard.

I think the cruise is 30, do you have a gps that would tell you the speed?? That way you can compare and make sure

I did that once. Had to use the scanguage to be able to set the RPM's back where they were supposed to be, filled the gas tank to full and then put that needle back accordingly, and set the cruise to adjust the speedo needle. Temp gauge usually sits at 1/2, so I fixed that one once I knew the engine was warm.

And yes - be sure to not press them all the way down.
