The tachometer in my car measures the engine's revolutions per minute. The mechanic adjusted the tachometer to ensure the engine was running smoothly. The driver glanced at the tachometer to check if the engine was being pushed too hard.
check the fuses.
If the tachometer only works a few times a year the VSS is malfunctioning. This can occur when oil is spilled on the unit and messes with the sensor. Cleaning the sensor will allow the tachometer to work properly.
Check engine light : Gauge cluster without tachometer ( under the engine oil pressure gauge ) Gauge cluster with tachometer ( just to the left of the battery voltage gauge )
The tachometer may not be working on a 1995 Chrysler LeBaron because the cable may be bad. Check to ensure the cable is not broken or kinked.
Check VSS variable speed sensor that is mounted on transmission
Remove the instrument panel cover. Remove the tachometer retaining screws. Remove the tachometer cable from the back of the tachometer. Reverse the process to install the new tachometer.
Check the fuses near the drivers left foot
Below your tachometer , just below where it shows RPM x 1000
check for an open fuse or check the vss (vehicle speed sensor)
you need a tachometer
