Dead Teleflex Tach

[Ericson35]

After who knows how long this tach has given good service she has decided to go silent. She is housed in a Universal Captain's panel and has 4 wire posts on the backside. Does anyone know a good replacement for this old dog? Tim

I think this will give you the answer, if the parts look the same:

I thought mine was dead, but I crimped new connectors on the wires and gave it a try before ordering a new one - it works.

Here is another option, I may get this one when I have to buy a new one:

Also check and be sure the alternator is sending a signal and that there is not a ground fault.
