Default '06 Flaky Tach

I've only had the truck a few weeks so still working out some of the old bugs. The tach sometimes reads fine, but other times will read zero at idle or reads really low (about 300 RPM) at 30-35 MPH. At higher speeds the tach seems to be more reliable. All the other gauges/lights in the cluster work fine and the truck runs great. Does this sound like a sensor issue or a gauge problem? If it's the gauge, do I have to replace the whole cluster?

Thanks,

Greg

Holy crap! That's weird you plugged in all the harnesses? Do the doors unlock with the remote?
