No, my actual engine speeds aren’t accurately represented. The question now is - is the signal bad, or the dial bad?

Don’t these have little step-motors on the back? I just saw a post on one of the forums (mud?) where somebody replaced theirs after it failed, but that one didn’t have the post that stops the needle so may be a different setup. Anyway researching symptoms of failed step motor may help. Also, check grounds maybe?

cheap and if you have some soldering abilities usually not too hard to replace.

Heh, this is your Vortec truck/SUV right? My pickup’s trip meter doesn’t work (my speedo and odo do) and I’ve been mulling whether to leave it be or grab another at the pick n pull . Apparently it’s pretty common since resetting it while in motion will break it (great design GM) so a junkyard replacement may very well be broken the same way.

Oh just watched the video and saw the Toyota logo. I guess it’s not just a GM thing.
