New to the 944 board....
I've been lurking on the 911 board for the last couple of years,but this weekend I bought an 88 944 to add to the garage.
I've had them before and I've always loved the 944. Had lots of fun replacing a CV joint today,but I noticed today while driving that the tach sometimes jumps around,sometimes works,and sometimes quits altogether for a few seconds. What would be the first thing that you 944 Gurus would check? Thanks in advance..... Mike |

Welcome to the dark side Mike..
Soul check is on the left, weapons and tool check on the right. remove the instrument cluster and clean up the wire connections on the back side of the cluster. Also, behind the instrument cluster, you will see a ground point - clean this as well. AFJuvat
