Fenalaar Elite Veteran Date registered: May 2006 Location: Narvik, Norway Vehicle(s): 2001 ML270CDI, Polaris 400L Big Boss Posts: 826 | RE: Weird Fault You can try to take a look at the tachometer repair part of this post: http://www.pointedthree.com/disc/forums/showthread.php?tid=5047&sta...

When it suddenly starts working, the needle will jump hard. Johan-Kr | ||
