Default Replaced battery: car won't start, and cluster is wonky

I have a 2001 Honda Civic Vtec SE sport. I have just replaced the battery and now I am getting a code on my mileage showing 060589 and the car wont start - what is this and do I need to reset something ? Will I need a mechanic ?

What do you mean "a code on my mileage showing 060589"? You need to give detailed information. Did you try to jump start? Did motor crank? Etc.

When creating a thread, it is best to summarize your problem in the thread title instead of "Help!" This not only helps people who are searching for answers, but it may also lead to people being more willing to answer your inquiry.

Try resetting the PCM. Remove fuse #6 from the fuse/relay box in the engine bay. Wait a minute before reinstalling it.

Did you create any sparks when changing the battery?
