so i was driving my car this morning, everything was working fine. Then i notice my rpm tach was moving every choppy and i was like WTF?!?! and then it just stay at 2300 rpm even after i shifted gears it was still stuck after about 1 minute it went back to normal. =\ i tryed to use the search and see if anybody esle had this problem but had no luck. any inputs? thanks

 

burn the car collect insurance. start over

 

Theres a few other threads about this issue, from my own personal experience... It only happens when there is direct sunlight on the tach. It will un-stick if you put your hand over the tach blocking the sun light.

I even used my cell to record it happen to show to Nissan service writers... I varied speeds and used the digital display to show the tach not moving a different speeds

 

+1 thanks for the input, it just shocked me because it was the first that it ever happen.

 

Had this happen yesterday, it was very sunny, my searching brought this up. Has anyone found a cause (why the sunlight might do that), or a solution to this? Mine too was stuck for maybe 60 seconds before it released and started working fine.

Thanks!

 

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

nothing?

 

+1, happens in my ZR!

 

Mine does it all the time, in the mornings heading west, and in the evenings headed east. Top Down always. It's common in the Zrs

 

That is such a freak problem...I never would have thought direct sunlight would effect a gauge that isnt digital.

 

I'm just wondering how you're getting direct sunlight on it. Makes sense in the ZR
