How Do You Repair A Tach??

I have a 1982 and the tach is not working. It was the opinion of this forum that the circut board was bad. My question is; ...is this a job I can do myself? How do you perform this operation? I have never pulled the instruments on the 82 before. I have located the part from Corvette Central but don't want to buy it if it's something I can't handle.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!!!

its a lot of work to tear into the dash.

my tach works about 1/2 the time and thats great. Just learn how to determine rpm by sound.

Thanks for the input Turtle Vette, but I just hate crawling in a nice looking car, firing it up, and seeing that tach just lying over there, like it's dead. Part of the fun of owning and driving a performance car to me is watching the guages!!

I also hate to know that anything is not working on my cars. I know,...it's a sickness, but I want it all right.

Any tips or ideas on how to go about this repair?

Thanks in advance,
DT
