Thanks Jim.. very helpful, as far as I know from the documentation I have, it
was built with the zetec motor...it has original equipment power steering.
some years ago I had to replace the ecu, so I wonder if that's part of the
problem I have has one rev-counter working...at half mast as you suggest above.
I'll start my making sure the green wire is properly connected...and see where
I get to.Thanks againBill

It's the green wire on the back of the cluster.
It will come from the EDIS module in the engine bay if you car has an EDIS
module or direct from the ecu if it's a later one without the EDIS module.
Some of your troubles swapping clusters may be down the the fact that there
are differences in the rev counter for the different engines and the rev
counter will read half or double the correct speed if it's not the correct one
for the engine.
Was the car build with the SI Zetec engine or has it been upgraded from a CVH ?
If the car originally had a CVH the green rev counter wire is actually tapped
off from one of the ignition coil wires inside the loom.

I've tried several different instrument clusters in my car, all of which have
had one fault or another, but the most persistent and irritating problem is the
current unwell rev-counter. I think the instrument itself is OK as the needle
move quite energetically when I engage the starter to fire up, but it then
returns to base and stays there. It's a standard Mk3 Si loom with a single
multiplug connection to the rear of the cluster. The speedo is mechanical. Out
of sheer frustration I had my local garage spend time with it today, to no
avail. It would help to know which of the wires in the multiplug feeds the
tacho, where this feed comes from and any other helpful suggestions would also
be very welcome. Bill --
