I would suspect a faulty cluster however as you have tried one, you must have a wiring problem or poor earth

check your jumper blocks above the fusebox, one of them has the ign live feed for the dash. it runs to E/2, and ther eis another feed from D/8. I think its the black one, but you'll have to double check.
