I am having similar problem with the tachometer, when accelerate the engine the needle move down to zero.

As of late everything is working except the hours are not advancing. Occasionally it takes the tachometer a minute to begin working, but has not failed to start working and appears to be accurate.

On my 5310 it was the fuel gauge that quit. I replaced the fuel sender but that didn't do it. After I traded it the guy that bought it made the dealer fix the problem, it was the gauge cluster.

I have checked all I can find to check and stopped just short of replacing gauge cluster. I average 100-125 hours annually. Hours not advancing is not a huge issue, but do like to have all functions working. May try replacing cluster at some point.

I've read and experienced quite a bit about those models of tractors. The gauge cluster is a failure item along with starters and the cold temp thermistor.

I am 2 for 3 of those items. No starter issues yet.
