Default Speedometer issue, accord 2.4 Ex sedan, 2007

Hey everyone,
yesterday I removed the speedo cluster guages to change the light, I didnt, anyways I fixed it back after carefully cleaning the dials. As much as I know the speedo needle rests at zero, after fixing the speedo cluster, when I turn the ignition ON, the needle is resting below zero.other guages are working exactly the same as before,no problem at all.problem is only with the speedo needle.
please help me fix this issue as the speedometer will not show me the exact speed.
honda accord 2.4 EX sedan
year 2007.
thank you.

i got that working by myself.
i tried searching the internet but i didnt get any satisfying solutions,
i tried to remove the battery and install again, didnt work.
tried to diagnose using the honda method, no solution.
i drive HONDA ACCORD 2.4 EX year 2007.


the speedometer was resting below zero which correct, obviously it would not show me the right speed.i removed the instrument cluster, disassemble everything till the last bit.my method of solving MAY NOT be the correct method by the book but, it worked for me.i just pushed the needle clockwise rapidly and then back to zero (anticlockwise), did that till the needle didnt go below zero.i saw a kind of pattern, i think it was setting itself, like resetting or something like that. after assembling completely back, i fixed the cluster at its place and drove to check whether the speedo is working fine or not.Alhamdulillah everything is working fine.
thanks anyways everyone.i hope you dont face the same problem.
