Ok so i did a full check to see why my tachometer stopped working and i can't figure it out. I believe it may be the tach itself and not the connections. Is there someone in the area who could take a look at it or something one of these days? thanks.

He is really good and vdo factory authorized. |

The only problem is that i'm uber low on cash as a college student haha. I'll recheck my connections a few times to be sure. |

Can you hook it up to someones else's car to make sure? Used tachs are easy to come by.
They don't go bad very often. |

Also North Hollywood Speedo repairs them, but I agree with the others above - esp. on a student's budget - test in another car, check anything you may have changed & all connections & wiring for wear/cracked insulation/shorting-out, the maybe try to get an inexpensive used one for now & save your original one to restore at Palo Alto or N Hollywood when you're bucks-up!
