  Many people just turn all their gauges so the needles all point straight
up when the reading is exactly right.
  Then, you look at the row of gauges and if one is not...it draws your
attention right now.  Same on a single gauge.  Rotate the dial till the
needle is up at your normal reading....Of course, this would really bother
some...having it 'not straight'..

  I don't know the answer to your actual question..not running a WBX in my
van.
