jumping tach needle problem, easy fix??
Lately, my tach needle has been jumping around. Anyone experience this?? I was told that it was a common occurance with 3rd gen's.
What are the possible causes and possible easy fixes??? From what I understand, there are two speed sensors that the tach uses to calibrate rpm's. Are they easy to get to??? if the sensors are fine, what other components could it be faulty?

there is a speed sensor under the car where the transmission is but I forget if it affects the tac also I know it tells the actual speed.
Also you can take off the gauge cluster and look behind the tac and see if the main connector is still in place and that all the wires are still strong on it.
you didn't touch anything? this just started happening?
