HELP, F8X Cluster Dial messed up

hello, so recently i put a new overlay on the clusters. i made sure not to remove the dials as instructed and plugged back everything. the fuel, speed and oil temp dials are all accurate however the rpm dial doesn’t stay at “off” when the car is off and isn’t accurate with the engine speed. i have a p3 gauge so it shows me the correct rpm. is there anyway to reset the dial?

i have placed the dial back to the off position when the car is off and everytime i turn off the car and lock it, the rpm dial goes back to that position shown below.

Needle was likely pushed/moved too aggressively when putting on the overlay and knocked off of calibration.

Dealer or indy shop will have to fix. Edi: heard of some people trying to do it themselves but I dont know if id risk that in this cluster.

Update, just took the dial off and turned the car off, placed the dial at the off position while the car was off and boom, issue fixed.

Glad you got it fixed. Also, what dials are those? I like the darker blue color better than the lighter blue I've seen

Best regards
