You`d need to find the pin on the ecu for the rev counter then run a wire to the instrument cluster.

On the mark 2 wiring loom if you remove the caps all the wires are numbered.

The number should be there, I can't see why they wouldn't be, all the wiring harnesses will be the same so they wouldnt just make one that didnt have number.. look harder?
if they really aren't there then a good guess would be that pin 1 is the top left.
Also all the earth wires are green with a yellow stripe so maybe look at the table and you might be able to work out which numbers the wires are in relation to where they appear on the connector block and then fill the rest in.
For example pin 9 on the yellow connector block is an earth wire so look for the yellow and green wire that corresponds to it being on pin 9, ie if there are 8 wires in front of it, you've probs got the right one.

Could be a loose wire somewhere, might be an idea to check all your connections to make sure they are solid and that there is no frayed wire or anything that could be causing any issues.
Failing they the dials could possibly be faulty.
