Default Speedometer and Tach Not Working After Jump Start

Hi,
My battery died on my 2005 Caravan and so I had it jump started. Everything went ok but now my speedometer and tach are on the opposite side of the spindle. (on the other side of the little resting pin).

Is there a fuse or something that can reset it? I took the cables off again to reset everything but that never helped.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Dean

You need to recalibrate the instrument pod....


Get in the car, close all doors. Key out of the ignition...

Hold the trip odometer reset button in for ten or 15 seconds. Soon a "Light Show" will start. Release the button....all the bulbs are tested and the instruments are re calibrated.

It's Magic.
