Could this be another problem you can add to the list you can blame on being so low?

Does the job, the guy I bought it off just threw a load of programs onto the disk so it took a while to get the right one working but it's good now it is.
Reads and clears codes, shows engine temp, revs, throttle position etc
Feel free to borrow mine if you want to test it before you pay out some cash for it.

disconnected for 15 mins and reconnected, still the same... why can't the cluster be taken apart and repaired why does it have to be replaced all together ?

If you want to buy a just a new rev counter you can, also the speedo motor is the same as the rev counter motor

this happened with my gti 138. replaced the cluster and still remained. i tried another cluster to make sure i hadnt got a dud and it worked fine. must be a common problem on these.
is your pug multi plex? mine isnt so cost me a fair bit for the clusters, think multi plex type are cheaper tho.
should find a set for £30 make sure they work
