My RPM tach works now and then...when it wants too! Does anyone know how to fix this? Is there a cable attached that needs to be fixed? As Marauders become less and less, there are less and less parts available.

No fix other than a gauge cluster swap....ive been patiently awaiting for over a year now.

A new cluster fixed mine.
But it took 2 years to find one with comparable miles on the odo
It's all BS until you can show me the time slip!

Mine has gotten a little "twitchy" its in really small amounts though. Only at idle. I'm very OCD so I notice it. However over the past month or so its been 100% fine.

Tach on my 2004 is just now doing this. Either it works fine, doesn't work at all, or shoots all the way to the right and stays there. Is a cluster swap the only fix?

Don't know if this question has been answered already and I don't feel like doing 'research' to find out at the moment...
Are our gauge clusters Marauder-specific? I would tend to think yes since it has 'MARAUDER' stamped on it, but would like confirmation from the gurus...

My two-cents: All things being equal, an intermittant tach fluctuation or non-functioning is possibly a precursor to a failed or failing crankshaft position sensor and the PCM failing to receive a signal momentarily (nano-seconds) but recovering before presenting other issues or causing the engine to shut down.
