| Post subject: | Tach Permanently Pegged?? |
Before reassembling the exhaust system, I ran the motor up to 3500 RPM in neutral in a quick flash to make sure everything was cleaned out. The motor slowed back down as soon as I let off, but the tach continued to go up and stopped on the peg and seems to be stuck there. Restarting has no effect. ACTRON pocket scanner shows no codes. I'm not worried about having overreved the motor and hurt it since I doubt a flash to 3500RPM would hurt anything, but the tach being permanently pegged is obviously a problem. Any thoughts? Thanks, DOC |

Have you tried disconnecting your battery for a while? |

Thanks, DOC The problem is mostly confined to the guage cluster its self, remove the guage cluster, remove the clear face, and gently push the tach back to zero, reinstall and check for normal operation. |

Or try a guage test, with the key in off position hold down the reset button and switch the key to on then release the reset button. A gauge test should now be performed. That "might" help you out before you disassemble everything. |

After several more start/stop cycles, it magically wound itself back to where it belongs. Thanks for all your input. DOC |
