Second Mk6 Rev Counter Problem

[Guest RobD]

Hi,

 

I changed the clocks in my dads Mk6 Cab at the weekend as the rev counter was not working.

 

Now the second "new" set has the same problem.

 

After reading all of the posts on the site regarding rev counter issues it seems more than likely that the issue is with the Silicone dampening as other people have mentioned.

 

Could somebody please advise where I can find the sensor that the rev counter gets its measurements from. I would like to check this over or replace it just to be sure that I have two faulty sets of guages.

 

As always any advice would be gratefully received.

 

Thanks,

 

Rob.

hi the mark 6 escorts get the info for the rev counter from the e c u so the problem could be the wire from the ecu or the clocks can you check the clock in a other car also is the printed circuit ok
