Tach Dash Electrical Repairs

Can the electrical board be fixed or do you just have to order a new one? Mine is pealed up at the temp guage screws--see pics below....

Re: Tach Dash Electrical Repairs

I've repaired mine several times with different stuff. Wire, gum wrapper, you name it. Then just layer some clear tape over it. After a certain point though, you are better off just getting a new one.

Re: Tach Dash Electrical Repairs

common issues, not problem at all as long as the copper is not broken it will work just fine
