Question is there anyone that can repair a circuit board on dash clocks?

my rev counter has stopped working in my golf 1992 vr6, ive tried a working rev counter in it from another set of clocks and it still wont work.

ive tried another set of clocks in it with a major difference in mileage and the rev counter works fine.

if there any companys from your expierience that can fix broken circuit boards?

Can you not move the speedo from the broken clocks to the new working clocks?

are you going to the ACE Cafe meet beginning of May? I will be there and can have a look for you! I will should be able to tell you if you can transplant the working rev counter into your dash. Bring both items please !
