Re: Tach not always working ..?

I have a new tach sensor with taxes it was $99.80CDN but I didn't put it in yet ... The sensor in it is less than a year old ,and tests 2530 ohms (good is 2000-3000 ohms) .. I checked the firewall wires cleaned some with contact cleaner and put dielectric grease on them .. Also cleaned the wires on the back of the dash assy ,Ford made a cheap circuit board when they made that it's just flexable plastic.. Anyway it's working now but it worked sometimes anyway so I guess I'll have to watch it and see if it stops working again ..

I have some Ford paper manuals & CD manuals they tell how to test tach but they don't go far enough in breaking the tests down..
