pulled cluster now needles don't work
hi guys, I have an 07 sport supercab, I pulled my instrument cluster out to check bulb sizes and to remove my buzzer and now my tach needle sticks at like 6-7k abut moves slightly with increased rpm. also, my fuel needle sticks at full or 3/4 tank. temp and speedo are fine. any way to fix / reset this? Another question, my odometer memory is in the cpu correct? if I get another cluster, it should just be plug and play? no probs with mialage or with pats?

nope, 100% sure it's plugged in perfectly. have had it out again since and no luck, and I made sure last time everything was plugged really good. it's not the white backing with the numbers on it either, that's all laying down good, not rubbing on the needles.
can aynone confirm with me, that if I get a new cluster, I can just plug it in and it won't effect my digital odometer nor the pats system preventing the truck from starting?

battery was disconnected the first time, and when all hooked back up, that is when the problem started, second time, battery remained connected.
I did not remove the needles, I attempted to remove the temp one, as that was the only one I wasn't too concerend with if I broke it, but they are next to impossiable to remove.

the buzzer was a simple pull the pizzo buzzer from the board, it's just 2 pins poorly soldered into a circut board, this one as with almost all buzzers in any vehicle it attached so poorly that you grasp it and pull up and the pins will slide out of the board, they hardly have any solder on them.
