BMW 740 Instrument cluster Problem

I have purchased 3 instrument clusters and have had basically the same issue with them.
1. When installed, the temperature gauge does not work but goes all the way to overheating.
2. The traction light comes on.
3. The RPM guage does not work.

What could be the problem?
Should the connection placement match as well?
