Good day,
My tachometer stopped working. I tried to test with a multimeter with the engine on if there is a signal coming from the engine but I could not notice anything unless there is a proper way to connect the meter or check if the gauge is faulty.
Could anyone be kind enough to advise on how I can test this?
Many thanks

Is your meter capable of measuring frequency? If not, try AC.
The vast majority of electrical problems are due to bad electrical connections.
Check for a loose or corroded connection or a broken wire.
What is the make and model of the tachometer?

Hi Many thanks,
I managed to find the problem that was on the broken metal spring cable that connects the engine to the sender unit transmitter that then connects to the RPM gauge.
Many thanks for your advice.
