Default Magnetized meter

I have a battery tester meter (Mallory) that came from a retail store. The
meter is magnetized and now sits center scale, instead of over to the
left.
Any solutions to return it to it's normal state. I tried reverse
polarity-
it goes to the left, but then returns to center.

thanks



Sounds more like some kind of mechanical failure, I've never heard of
magnetism causing that margin of error.
