TachOmeter Burp

[JimLor]

Left work the other day and as I was on the on-ramp to 95 I look at my tach and it reads ~200 rpm! Get on 95 and at 70mph it reads 1500rpm - should read ~4100. Figure I might get to use my YES before it expires. Get off 95 and stop at a light, needle burps, from then on the tach is just fine.

So,

1. One of those things that happens

2. Spells impending doom and failure

3. Well, can't think of a number 3.

BTW, no other electrical problems at the time; speedo, digital screen, lights, etc were all just fine. 2005 ABS w/36k

Hoping it's no big deal, I appreciate your thoughts.

Kind of a *****, but pull and clean ECM plug and cluster plug that goes into back of dash. Just fer giggles. Especially if neither has ever been disconnected.

I concur doctor. Had the same problem pop up on my 08 after about 10,000 miles and it solved the problem.
