    Before I take this to Peterbilt and have them send it off for repairs - any suggestions for tach repairs elsewhere?

    Hasn’t worked since I bought the truck. Scan guage resds the RPM just fine, so I figure it’s not crank/cam (already replaced anyhow) sensors or VSS.

    Jumps around if I hit the city horn, doesn’t respond to polite bashing at all.

    SAVE ME FROM THE EVIL PACCAR DEALERSHIP!!!!

    :)

    Btw.... let me know how’s it turns out. Mine is a 94 with CAT, and it hasn’t worked for the last 3 years.

    Well - look at that. There’s a guy that works on instrument clusters about 15 mile away.

    Might be a start.
