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.

whole binacle was changed but still nothing

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?
