924 sluggish/non-operable switches - motors
 

I'm a newbie here, beginning refurbishment (not restoration) of a 1982 924 base.

The car runs, for which I feel fortunate, but some electrical things work, others don't, which is not surprising, of course.

1. Tachometer is not working, any advice on where to start on that?

2. Odometer/tripmeter not working.

3. Turn signals only work intermittently, I suspect oxidized contacts, but hoping someone here has a thought on that.

4. Windshield wipers and windows (electric) are _extremely_ slow. I'm delighted they work at all, but the wipers are soooo sloooow, they prohibit driving at all in the rain.

Any ideas on these electric system fixes/improvements?

Thanks!!!

THE best board is 924.org.

I have owned a 77.5 & a 79 924.

Begin by cleaning every ground on the engine and body.
Update the battery cables to a thicker wire.
Clean every fuse and relay contact.
Have the alternator checked and replace the voltage regulator---use only OEM parts.
Clean front and rear turn signal contacts.
