stick a paper clip or something similar through the gap of space around the mileage reset pin. if you bend the paper clip properly, you should be able to knock the needle back over so that it rests on top of the little bar.

Repairing an inoperative gas guage on a 1997 Buick Park Avenue. Needle stuck behind stopper pin?
Have fixed this issue many times... you need a STRONG magnet. Turn the ignition off, place the magnet over the gauge (on the clear plastic cover over the gauge cluster) on the end of the needle... it will react to the magnet and move when you move the magnet. Simply rotate the needle back into its proper position. Raise the magnet up... if it stays in the position, turn the ignition on... if your gauge is not broken, the needle should be reset and function properly.
