Civic dash gauge rattles and resets when cold
I have a Honda Civic 2001 EX with about 98,000 miles on it. A few years ago, I noticed in the winter mornings when it was really cold, I would start the engine and the gauges on the dash would all rattle for maybe 2 seconds. Then they would go back to normal. My mileage from trip A and trip B would also reset to 0.0 (odometer has never been effected).
Just like on this video:

Once spring and summer hit, this problem went away. It never seemed to happen when the car was warm. Last winter, I noticed that this happened more frequently. This year, it happens more often than not and the gauges seem to rattle longer. If anyone can help me resolve this, I would really appreciate it.
