What should I do if my boat tachometer is not working?
Reconnect the boat battery to the boat wiring system. Turn on the boat and check if the tachometer receives a reading of revolutions per minute from the engine wiring. Give the boat some throttle and confirm the tachometer reads the increase correctly.
Where do you hook up the tachometer on a Chevy 350?
Hook up the green wire to the negative side of the ignition coil, which is on the left side. Close the hood, start the engine and test drive the vehicle make sure the tachometer is working. Dealing with electricity can be dangerous. If your tachometer is not wired properly, it can cause melting and burning.
What kind of problem does a Jeep Liberty have?
:sick: I have a 02 Liberty 3.7L V6. about 85,000 miles on it. never had a problem till two weeks ago. driving down the road and the car just starts stalling with the RPM gauge going nutz, then the cabin fills up with gas fumes,blows black smoke only when it starts acting up, check engine lite stays on, but not blinking.
What kind of noise does a Jeep Liberty make?
It does not make any noise, unless you are just a picky weirdo, hopefully not. If you paid to have the work done, then get it done right. Or record the sound and post it or email it to me. I haven’t had to pay for anything yet as it is still under the original mfgr warranty.
Why is my tach and hour meter not working?
Please be as detailed as possible, as I haven’t had to work in this tractor at all so far. If the tach and the hour meter both quit it is very likely the tachometer cable is broken. Easy fix.
Why is the speedometer on my liberty not working?
If you don’t have a scanner, take it to the local parts store and have them run it for you. Wiring Issues – Exposed wiring to or from the VSS can cause your Liberty’s speedometer to no longer work. This will often manifest itself after driving through heavy water. It’s worth checking to see if the fuse has blown.
What to do if your tach isn’t working?
Remove the cable from the engine end. There should be a square piece sticking out. Grasp that square piece between your thumb and forefinger and give it a spin while looking at the tach. Try both ways. If it moves the needle, the tach is fine and so is the cable but it isn’t making contact with something at the engine end.
When does a bi coil tachometer go to zero rpm?
BI-COIL METERS ARE WOUND SOMEWHAT LIKE A G.M. TEMPERATURE GAUGE AND ONLY GO TO ZERO RPM WHEN THE ENGINE IS TURN ON. BI-COIL METERS ARE STILL READILY AVAILABLE. HOWEVER, D’ARSENVAL AND TAUT BAND METERS ARE EXPENSIVE AND HARD TO FIND, EASILY DAMAGED AND SUBJECT TO BEING CONTAMINATED BY ANY METAL SHAVINGS!
What causes a Mustang tachometer not to start?
MUSTANG/FORD TACHOMETERS (MOST 1963-76 FORD, 1965-73 MUSTANG) CAN CAUSE YOUR ENGINE NOT TO START. THE 12 VOLTS TO THE PLUS SIDE OF THE COIL GOES THROUGH THE TACHOMETER ELECTRONIC CIRCUIT THAT CONTAINS A SPECIAL INPUT ISOLATION TRANSFORMER.
How can I tell if my tachometer gauge is good?
THERE IS ONE BASIC WAY TO CHECK THESE GAUGES. HOWEVER, THIS METHOD IS ONLY ABOUT 90 PERCENT ACCURATE. GET A GOOD VOLT OHM METER AND SWITCH TO THE R TIMES 1 SCALE AND ATTACH YOUR LEADS TO THE 2 STUDS COMING OUT OF THE GAUGE. IT SHOULD READ AROUND 1O OHMS, PLUS OR MINUS AND MOST LIKELY THE GAUGE IS GOOD.

What to do if your tachometer stops working?
That fuse may well go to other instruments as well (trim meter, if you have one), so if the tach is the only thing out, not sure that the fuse is the problem. But you might start there. Last edited by Harper; 07-14-2016, 07:54 PM .
What to do when a Tacho 2 error occurs?
When a Tacho 2 error occurs, the tachometer has not detected any magnetic pulses. The rotor may have not have been tightened completely. Check the rotor. To clear, open the centrifuge cover and turn off the mains (power) switch. Wait ten seconds and then vigorously spin the rotor by hand.
When does a d’aresenval tachometer go to zero?
D’ARESENVAL METERS WERE USED IN 90% OF THE CLASSIC CAR ERA TACHOMETERS. THERE IS NO PEG AT ZERO AND THEY WILL GO TO ZERO, POSSIBLY DROP BELOW ZERO AND RETURN TO ZERO WHEN THE ENGINE IS CUT OFF. BI-COIL METERS ARE WOUND SOMEWHAT LIKE A G.M. TEMPERATURE GAUGE AND ONLY GO TO ZERO RPM WHEN THE ENGINE IS TURN ON.
Why is the tach not working on my Suzuki GSX-R?
The bike is a 2002 1000 and has a power commander3 installed other than that no other modifications has been done with the wiring. Thanks!! I also want to add that when ignition key is turned on the backlight of the gauge cluster is lit up but no display on the lcd and no tach movement.
What was the problem with my Tacho gauge?
The fuel computer on the tacho gauge had changed from litres (metric) back to gallons (imperial) and lost the data in its memory. I didn’t think anything off it, checked my fuel level and put the 240v back on for charging. Normal operation but the tacho gauge above 3500 rpm became faulty.
Why are my Speedo and tach not working?
Under the right hand inlet duct are three connectors one is not water resistant and water runs down the harness and corrodes out the connectors. Did you find the recommended reading relevant to this discussion?
What to do if your tachometer is not working?
Close the hood, start the engine and test drive the vehicle make sure the tachometer is working. Dealing with electricity can be dangerous. If your tachometer is not wired properly, it can cause melting and burning. Amanda Harrell began her journey as writer in 2010.
Why does my Yamaha tachometer say 0 rpm?
Randomly went through the dips, rechecked the wiring and still, firing up the engine shows 0 RPMs. Did I buy the wrong tach or is something out of place?
Why does my Tacho read different after grounding?
Grounding can make it read different but the input is what you should check first. Don’t worry about a band resistor, just get a variable ‘ohm’ resistor and that way you can adjust it accordingly, autometer specifies to use one if the tacho has reading difficulties. EDIT: Resistor and fitting guide:
What should the voltage be on a boat tachometer?
Turn the tachometer over gently so that the backside is exposed. Check that the back of the tachometer has a switch set to 12 (standard on all 12-volt tachometers), matching the boat’s 12 pole system. Check your boat wiring manual to confirm your voltage if your not sure what it is.
Are there any problems with my Pathfinder truck?
This should be helpful for people browsing the Internet for minor problems/work on their Pathfinder. Updated 1/8/07, added rust details, tension rod problem and edited several inaccuracies. Problems with your fuel and temp gauges are common with the 95 and older trucks.

What causes the ticking noise on a pathfinder?
This causes the infamous “ticking” noise often heard from the front of Pathfinders which quiets down after the manifolds have heated up sufficiently. This applies to all Pathfinders from 1987 through 1995.

What’s the problem with my 1993 Volvo 850?
Just the little annoying things that can drive you nuts trying to resolve if you don’t know the cause and where to begin fixing it. Beginning with the 1993 850 Volvo began using an upper engine mount (also called the upper engine stabilizer) that helped to control engine movement especially during acceleration.
