I wrote a little while back that my rev-counter stopped working - I removed
the steering wheel and cowling and check the connections at back - all
seemed OK.

Just got the car back on the road and now the tacho's come back to life at
idle speed - but once the revs go over 1100 rpm the needle drops down
towards 0 - it never reads above abotu 1200 rpm!

Any ideas?

TIA

FYI the instruments come out the front of the dash with some VERY careful
prying .
i've done this several times with no
problems .

but this place repairs them and they may

This is Usenet.  If he replies within six months (or at all), consider
yourself lucky.

You replied

Clearly I'd removed the instruments, the other part of your post stated that
you couldn't help....

So thanks anyway for your unhelpful reply.

Geez.  All he did was suggest that the instruments are easily pried out from
the front.  There was no need to remove any parts of the dash or steering
wheel.

I would look for any loose wires or connections, especially ground wires.
