Default Trip computer upgrade?

I have a 850 N/A from 1994. I got a 94 trip computer and the info switch. I have the VDO cluster but the connector plug is different. I wired it pin to pin and it sorta works. Although when you start the car it resets as if you unplugged it then plugged it back in again. Also when you turn on the lights it must short or something because then all the gauges stop working until you unplug the cluster and plug it back in. Any ideas?

The PINs must not be correct. Is there anyway you can find the correct connector for it?

turns out either I received the wrong trip or it was broken. I got another one and it worked great.
