Default Gauge Cluster Missing Data

Ok this is hardly an emergency, mostly a minor irritation, but non the less is driving me nuts every time I get in my truck. I bought the truck in July of 24 and it currently has 10000 miles on it. I only drive it every now and then as I commute to work in my 16. I went to get it in about three weeks ago. I tried to remote start it, and nothing. It would not even open the doors with the FOB. I ended up having to use the key to gain entry. The dash lit up as did the touch screen followed by "click click click" as i push the button to start the truck. I get it jump started take it to the dealer where they diagnose and replace the battery. As I drive home I notice the oil pressure gauge is no longer displaying oil temp as it has done since I set it up when I first purchased the truck. Now no matter what I do I can't seem to get it to come back. Any thoughts from anyone on how to fix this without having to return it to the dealer. I really don't want to schedule a dealer appointment just for this issue unless I am left with no other option. I really would like that display back. I was hoping one of you geniuses has a solution to my problem. Thanks in advance!

Just need to go into the settings in the dash and configure your gauge to show numbers. Happens every time an update gets pushed for me too. I also like to show boost pressure, that one also resets as well. No cause for alarm, just annoying.

Thank you for the reply. Luckily in Dallas today it is not very seasonal in terms of temperature, very nice day to work on the vehicle. After a considerable amount of digging through menus, it turns out that particular option was selected, but was not active. When attempting to reselect the option it would not allow it. Selecting a transmission temp on the one that was previously set to oil temp, and vice versa on the other one appears to have corrected the issue. Also another bit of good news, I actually examined the new battery closely and noticed the new one is actually a H7. I am kind of curious as to why it was not replaced with another H6. I am delighted they did just kind of wondering why. With that said I am going to assume that they programmed the truck to take advantage of the new battery characteristics and as such may have messed up my settings on the dash. That is at least my theory.

Resetting the BMS wouldn't do anything to any other settings on the truck. The battery failure is the cause.
