Early dash tachs just die, you probably need another one.
Try the "tap the dash" and see if it comes alive again.
Get one from the local Porsche wrecking yard.

I have an early 85, and my tach worked onloy sometimes, and was really wierd, I left it for a while but got really tired of my occasional tach, so I bought a used one for 8$ because it was easy to replace, and it fixed my problem, best 8$ I ever spent. My tach now works perfectly
