Tacho not working correrctly.
Okay well in my Calais everything else works, bar the stupid tacho.. (oh and power windows but thats cause I took the switches out and been to lazy to put them in) It works sometimes, but then spazzes out. Kind of funny to watch but utterly annoying when you want to know the revs. When it does work it jumps around like crazy. Its not the cluster itself because I have put 3 different ones in and the problem still remains. Any Ideas guys?

Id say ignition module because thats where the tacho signal is generated.

So just a dogjey solder or connection? easy fix?

I was thinking more along the lines of replace it lol. But could just be a loose connection somewhere. Do you have the S1 or S2 setup?

Series one engine, but it was a transplant job, so I don't know about interior, how can I tell?

S1 has square coils, S2+ has round coils. S1 coils/modules are known to be dodgy apparently.
BT1, the way to go
go for a Autometer 5' Tach......... best thing i ever bought!..

big wad of cash to find its still the ignition module messing up the signal.Originally Posted by VN Lukey
he already has a stock tacho in the dash, so no need for a 10k tach thatll only evre see half sweep.

Sorry luke, but I dont think I could ever live with myself. You guys have full permission to repossess my car if I have more than one tacho.. xD
its an easy fix take out the s1 coil pack and put s2 one in will solve the problem thats what i did when mine played up and it has worked ever since s1 coil pack has lots of faults with it u can get s2 off ebay for abot 40 to 80 dollars
