Ready buy a use dash but same problem rpm gauge dont move what do you think is the problem or what else can i do? Thank you for the help

@elguapoben1000 generally the tachs themselves just wear out on those, they cost a ton, try a used junk yard dash or install a cheap aftermarket tach unit on the dash.
