I read a lot of material on this subject but could not seem to find anything similar to what I have (as always the case). i realize the easiest way to get my answer is to replace the tach. but if i don't have to replace i don't really want to. also i have a tach that has the hour meter on it and i don't really want to lose that data. i've done some troubleshooting:
when the ignition is on i get 12V with the purple and black wire
when the ignition is on i get 12V with the grey and black wire.
it seems like i'm getting power to the tach but for some reason i get no reading when the engine is running. it's stuck at zero. i've cleaned all the post and re-tighten all connections and still nothing. it's highly likely the tach is bad, but i just want to make sure before i go buy a new one.
