Hi everyone!
This is what happens with the tachometer of my e21 (320/6)
When I bought the car (1 year ago) the tacho would not read
correctly. Let me explain better, it would work fine, but it did not start on the '0' rpm, it started in the middle where the digital clock is, so if I revved up, then the needle would get to 0, or to 2000 rpm, although the car would be revving high. Now, I replaced the whole dashboard, and when I installed it, it worked fine, no problems. But since 1 month ago, it went 1000 rpms down, I mean when it's in iddle around 800-1000rpm, the needle is just below 0 rpms, again the same thing than before....
ANY IDEAS ON WHAT MIGHT BE THE PROBLEM???
Thanks all for your input, and sorry for my english,Alejandro.
1981 320/6 - Argentina.
