Has anyone installed the standard 2018 gauge cluster in a 2015-2017? (Includes digital speedometer)

Hi I know this is an old post but I just did a 2019 swap into my 17. Everything works fine even the my color but the rpm gauge will not move off zero when driving or in start up. I'm not sure what I have to change in forscan as I can't find anything on the forums here. Please help!
Did u ever figure this out ? I’m doing this and showing the exact problem . If not looks like I will be forking out 150 even though i don’t want to

YES. I did end up figuring it out. I have everything working on my new cluster now including the high beam symbol. I can grab my forscan codes for you later if you want, what I ended up doing for the majority of it is I plugged my older cluster in, took photos of the as built for the cluster (on the new cluster there are several more lines than what shows up with the old cluster) I ignored the extra lines. I then went through each line and used the as built from my old cluster and changed the new cluster to match and then I went through the module (simplified section) and enabled/disabled which gauges I wanted digital speedo etc. mycolor shows as disabled and it won't let me enable it but mycolor works just fine so I think it's just a bug. I also updated my mileage to match its usually a few miles off so I had to update it to a few miles over what it actually had and when it applied the change it would be where it needed to be. Just remember, you can only ADD miles so if you go to high you have to live with it. You cannot remove miles or lower it, only raise it. Let me know if you want me to grab my asbuilt.

man that would be awesome !! Save me from having to remove my cluster again for like the 5th time ! Cuz if that works than I can just adjust the rest like I was doing ! But yeah only rpm and mileage to empty which I really just want the rpm. I didn’t even think of taking a pic I figured copying would have fixed it . Or was hoping
