911 3.2 charging low - many corrections made

Here is what is going on…

13 volts charging stopped after I charged the battery; was getting drained from sitting.

Issues...

Tachometer jumps when accelerating sometimes to pegging to the end of the dial– the orange, upshift indicator light stopped working at the same time the jumping started. Other gauges are doing the same slight “jiggle” though very little. Never did this before - 11 years of ownership... Also temp gauge goes way up to a place I have only seen in in the California desert doing 90 MPH -

Cigarette digital voltmeter was always at 13.3/ 13.5 before issue (been in car for a year)
Car currently charges when running from 11.4 to 12.9 volts – mostly at 12.1 when driving
Replaced alternator/generator 2 weeks ago
Battery ground cable checked and new
Battery replaced six months ago; though tried a new battery and there was a quick delay on the starter to turn over? Solenoid? Maybe?
Replaced DME relay last week
North Hollywood Speedo is rebuilding “jumping” Tachometer – should have it back next week – said no issues, but having it rebuild anyway
Replaced coil

I am at a loss and done doing the work myself. Nothing has changed with my efforts.
