I recently pulled my 1999 Buick Park Avenue Ultra out of the garage, only to find the battery dead. When I went to jump start my car, my fuel gauge and my coolant gauge all spiked (spun all the way around and rest UNDER the little pin that sticks out).

Is there a way to reset these myself? I've had them reset to the tune of $85.00 for them taking my dash apart and resetting them.

You have to remove dash cluster and take off cover and physically flip them back.

Ok, I think I can probably figure out how to disassemble it. So all I need now is just to get the oil changed (she's been sitting for a while) and give it a once over and she'll be good as new :)

Thanks again! :D
