Hi all, I have a Cummins 6BTA with an alternator driven VDO 4″ tach. I am replacing the tach because it will intermittently stop working. The original is no longer available. I installed a FARIA unit (actually 2) and got no reading. Tach needle bumps when I switch on the key, but no rpm reading. I measured about 3v ac at the signal wire. If i reinstall the VDO it reads fine. The Faria unit is correct for alt-driven application according to their tech support. I tried switching calibration positions at the back- no joy. I’m willing to try another brand, but I can’t find anything very close to the size & style of the original. I’m hoping someone has run into something like this before & can steer me in the right direction. Thanks, Jerry
