Temperature sensor not working after cluster swap?

The needle went from cold to hot in a matter of seconds first start in the morning. New Temperature sensor/coolant sensor installed, temperature gauge still not working. An instrument cluster was installed. The temperature gauge is still not working and now after the swap, the battery gauge is not working properly. The battery needle is almost touching the L. I hope nothing is draining the battery. All other gauges are working fine. Is it possible the swap is not compatible? I don't believe I have the correct instrument cluster. Are instrument clusters interchangeable with different year models? Thanks in advance.
