Default Gauge Cluster Problem

Gauges going all the way over when starting car the bouncing back to 0 then they recalibrate to where they should sit for idle. Battery doesn't reset i don't believe. Anyone know anything bout this?

Not that problem, but my temp gauge went below cold and never worked again after changing the sensor and checking for power/grounds. Thats why I ended up putting the vitals on the pillar.
