Boost gauge not working

I am working on my dads 06 F350. He had four dash lights go out, so we changed out the bulbs and put the dash back together. When we hooked the batteries back up all the gauges reset except the the boost gauge. The needle went way past 0 and bounced for about 2 seconds then it just stayed below 0. We have tried to reset it by unhooking the batteries and turning the ign. switch on and off several times. Always go back past 0 and stays there. It does work it just doesn't read correctly. I am pretty sure that the needle did not get turned on the shaft? Is there a way to reset it?

Sorry no one got back with you. Did you get it figured out? My boost guage is sitting below zero and not moving no matter what.

Hold the trip button in and turn the ignition on, see if the boost gauge sweeps properly like the other ones. If not, you have a cluster problem.
