Hi Guys,

For some reason, my speedo needle has gone below the 0km/h mark.

I pulled it apart to change some globes, and notice it as I was putting it back together.

Anyone know how to get it to sit properly?

Cheers

i recently changed my fascia's on my speedo and tacho etc., had to take the needles off to change them. Pull ur needle off, then put it bak on about half way, rotate it clockwise until it feels a bit sticky, let go and it will spring back to a spot, keep doing that until it springs back to zero, then push it on properly. Bit fiddly, but it worked for me

Awesome, do you have to unscrew anything, or should the needle just come off?

Got it sorted. I must've gotten the needle stuck on my shirt or something and pulled it below the 0km mark. Just had to twist it back the otherway past 200km until it sprung back to 0km correctly. Cheers Bob129
