Recently my RPM gauge stopped working, I replaced the 21 fuse and it started again for a while but recently has gone out again. I replaced the 21, 12, and 10 fuses and still nothing this time. I have recently replaced the SI board with a batteryless one (don't know if that was a good choice yet) but so far, my oil indicator lights are working when starting the car. Every gauge but the RPM gauge is working normally (better than before I replaced the SI board). I have been looking and so far, I have seen people recommend replacing the SI board with a new one or new batteries.
The person I got the car from gave it to a -lets just call him not so proficient- mechanic who decided 1 bigger battery was better than 2 smaller ones. Turns out that wasn't a good idea as the oil indicator lights never worked, tach and temp gauge were wonky. (another one of that mechanics thought was to hold the radiator shroud with a bent spoon. Innovative ill give him that.
I just want a couple more ideas to do and if I need to swap the board again I will just want to try to avoid doing that if I can. But it seems ive hit a wall and could use the help!
Thanks,
Trevor
