Most likely the tach cable.

Speedo and tach cable failures are common.

The newer ones don't have tach cables, they're electronic.

I have an electric one, does anyone have the schematic?

I think its a loose wire or a short because it came back for a few minutes today.

Try taking it apart and look at the solderings. The vibrations could easily cause faulty soldering.

Oh, before you do: Take a look at plugs from the gauge. Maybe it's just a poor connection.

I took it apart and I found 3 caps bouncing around and one resistor and a PC with 70's technology designed by a kid. Wow they (CDM) cant get anything correct!
