VR6Pete 1,455 Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Is it the circuit board or the gauge that has packed up? presume you have covered basics, and verified there is 12v going to the gauge for the RPM? Link to post Share on other sites

Woodyman84 3 Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 u might find a local electrical repair place might run over it with some solder and a multimeter just incase you have a dry joing or a broken track.its kind of a needle in a haystack thing though.i do alot of circuit board work for my job but without a very accurate circuit diagram its very hard to check continuity and resistances accuratelyso alot of the time we just re flow as much as possible an check the obvious bits Link to post Share on other sites
michael5556 247 Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Is it not easier to just try and get some clocks with similar mileage? As said above its not a very easy job for someone who knows what they are doing. Link to post Share on other sites
daveyboy 897 Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Can you not just get a set of clocks then get a mileage correction company to correct the mileage to the same as whats on yours? I have a spare set of clocks too. Not sure if they work or of the mileage bit I can bung them in the post if you want them? Link to post Share on other sites
