Title: Rev counter gone crazy
Post by: leeroy_25 on September 29, 2016, 09:21:25 PM
My Rev counter goes crazy when I switch the ignition on. Bounces around all over the place. Sometimes it moves normally but I don't think it's reading th right rpm. Rest of the dials seem fine to my knowledge. That said oil pressure sits on 0 most of the time. I know it's OK as I have a mechanical garage in the bay so don't panic like I did first time I happened! I haven't driven it yet and can't so don't know if the speedo works. Fuel and water temp seem to though. Can anyone let me know what the issue is so I can fix it please!

Thanks
Lee

Hi mate...its a common prob...ive had my cluster out about 10 times...resoldered all joints cleaned connections up on the spade joints...worked for abit and now gone screwy again...have a read of my build thread as the info and piccys in there.  I fitted a shift light in the end...works a treat.

Thanks.. I got sent a How to manual on another forum about soldering and things! I look forwards to some fun! I hate electrics!

Cheers
