Hi,
My pontoon boat has a Teleflex tach that hasn't worked since someone ripped off the transducer some time ago. I want a working tach and I'd appreciate some comments on the options I'm thinking about. Or some other options if I'm totally off the wall.
The current guage is stuck, reading about 1000 rpms. Is that an indication that it's broken? Can I determine with a current tester whether there's a signal coming through the wires? If there is a signal, can I remove the old guage and attach a new teleflex one to the existing wires and expect it to work?
You can probably tell from my questions that I'm totally ignorant on the subject of tachs, (there are some who say I'm totally ignorant regardless of the subject) so please don't get too technical!
Thanks,
Mike
