The old cable was broken so it did not transmit (transfer mechanically) the RPMs.
I have replaced the cable with a new one.
Problem is that now the tachometer shows the RPMs at or over 2600, even with the engine running a a very slow idle.
Question is: What is the solution to this problem.
where you got the cable hooked? genny right? or an aux adapter?
in any case.. sounds like a cluster issue if it reads in the correct direction.. but high..
The cable goes into a hookup on the back of the generator.
Not sure what a cluster error is.
And yes it is reading in the correct direction,
Thank you.
cluster error? sounds like something wrong with a hard drive file allocation system.
i said cluster issue.
your machine does not have sepereate gauges.. it has a instrument cluster with all the gauges built into one 'cluster' thus a cluster issue.
ie.. tach portion.. or mor e likely the coupler inside the cluster, is having a problem.
Hey, I get to try to be funny sometimes...
it worked :)
When I have a "cluster issue" I usually use a more descriptive term.
Back to the immediate question, the tach/hourmeter portion of the proofmeter has problems. Used to be this portion was replaceable separately. Can't say for sure if this is still true or feasable.
i figured Bird might delete my message if I revealed my cluster 'issue' language as well. :)Quote:

Spect I will have to remove the instrument panel and have a gander at it's back-side to see if the tach and hour meter can be exchanged.
Thanks again.
