Focus on fuse 14, does it have 12V? Reverse lights working? Also see http://www.bmwe21.net/?page_id=130

Try another set of clocks.
Takes about 5 mins to change add will show if clocks are ok or not
Goodluck

Id change the whole binacle rather than just the rev gauge.

Can you post pics of both binacle rear circuits?

If you take the under dash panel off. At the back on the right hand side there is an earth point. See if the screw holding it down is loose?

you might want to clean the plug that goes from the engine to the fuse box.
