I am once again asking for some help with my Marauders goofy Tach. It works when it wants to, but most of the time it just shoots all the way up and stays there or lays at 0. Some people were offering possible fixes the last time I posted but I never recieved anything in my inbox. If anyone has any idea of a possible fix without getting a new cluster or Tach I would love to hear your feedback. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Smack the top of the dash.. Mine did it 3-4 times, and hasn't done it in a while. From what I've read, a replacement is the only option.

Have you tried Unplugging it, cleaning and reattaching it?

No, I haven't tried unplugging it. Is the plug hard to find?

You have to either remove the instrument cluster or remove the cluster faceplate.

It's pretty easy.

I highly recommend removing the radio if you decide to do this.

Sounds good thanks guys. Hopefully this will fix it and that will be another issue I can scratch off my list.
