So I have a battery that isn't holding its charge really well on my ACR. So if I go more than like 3 days without startig it, it won't start. It'll just click but not turnover. Anyways when I did this my gauges went all wack. I ended up jumping it and now everything is fine except my speedometer is screwed up. It doesn't move and its stuck in the all the way around clockwise position against the lil plastic stub. How the hell do I get it back to normal and get it to go counterclockwise back to zero?

You could try doing the cluster check. Basically hold the Odometer trip reset in, and turn on the key. Then let go of the reset. The gauges will go through their sweep positions. If that doesn't work, you may have to pull the cluster, and tilt it to get the needle to swing back around.

If worst comes to worst then pull the cluster like the previous poster said. I've pulled enough clusters to know that will do it.

Seems the n00b status is going to be staying a bit.
