Did you do the cluster test from hidden menu ?? If it doesnt work that means you didnt connect it like it should

Pres odometer reset button without key insert, then when you keep pressing put in the key , hiddden menu should appear on bc, then release button and press it again till 'KI TEST" appear, realese button and press it again, test should perform

Tried that but still no luck, i presume its kaput?

Test passed on rest of gauges instead rev ?? If so there are two possibilities bad and good

Good: is that you need to take of cluster and check if needle is proper in its side)

Very bad : you need to buy and code new cluster and thats quite expensive ;/

Yeah the test ran through just rev counter didn't move round.

can i buy a second hand instrument and have that coded?

[Dziqsek_]

Yes you can but thats not low money change -im not speaking about coding casue that will be quite cheap comparing to buy new cluster. Try to do as much as you can with your old needle maybe you can fix it!

Good luck!

They get stored in ECU. But you would need to get new odometer coded, so that it can have mileage of your car.
