check underneath the dash on the steering column from the pointer in the dash is connected to a wire and connected to a plastic clip make sure that is ok and it is adjustable

Hockey is right.it's a plastic clip with a retainer screw. Move it until the indicator lines back up.
My old 1985 Grand Marquis did the same thing. Once it was in place, I used epoxy to keep it there.
