Default Test on odometer

Hey all IV noticed when I turn the ignition on right after the truck starts up the odometer says "test" right before showing the miles. Is this normal or is something else going on? Thanks for the help

I know it says TEST if you hold down the stick, turn on the key, but dont start the truck. But as far as it doing it without holding it, i couldnt tell you.

The select/reset stick on the cluster that normally switches between the ODO and TRIP. It goes into DTM mode. This is it on the next gen, but its the same process:

Disconnect the battery and reconnect and see if that fixes it. Other than that maybe the modular went out? I'd try "rebooting" it first.
