Do a search for Diagnostic Mode. You can check all of the readings that should be displayed on your instrument cluster on you climate control module. Holding the REST button in for 10 seconds gives you a list of readings including speed and tach. If you are still getting readings then you may just need to replace the instrument cluster. They are on ebay a lot for under $100.

Before you jump ship, check the fuse for the guages. I have a 202 and found that if the "lamp failure warning system" fuse is removed, the guages would not work. It may be differentfor a 210 but I think worth looking at.
