    The berlina and Calais cluster should be the same. Check the No1 fuse.

    Also check connector 3 is not upside down. (RHS connector with orange white wire 2nd slot top left)

    The new cluster should have a R as the first letter of the 2 letter prefix.

    Short answer is no

    Swap it back and see if you still have that problem, if not then it means you have a faulty cluster.
