Default WAIT FOR IT...WAIT FOR IT.....SHIFT!

the tach in my recently purchased 1990 B16 CRX Si dosen't work at all. it seems to me though that since the tach is electronic...(unlike the speedo) and since the rest of the guage cluster works that the tach should work. anyone know what the problem might be? also if the general prognosis is that the guage cluster is shot then does anyone have a spare 90-91 cluster for sale?
