The tach on the 1586 (80 or 81 model) was working then one day quite registering, then worked again and now hasnt worked in a few days. Mph was working when rpms didnt, but now that also doesnt work. The exhaust temp will still read out but the rpm, pto and mph arent registering. Where does it "drive" from? Would it be the display unit itself or the reading end of it? I will call the dealer tommorow to see what a new one costs and if they are still available. I have only had the tractor a month, and from the looks of an old brochure on the 86 series it looks like this display unit has been replaced and it looks like the ones the 88 series used. When i bought it from a small time dealer/farmer, he swore it was a 3000 actual hour tractor, but after seeing the tach is probably from a 88 series and it only works part of the time along with the other problems i have had i guess i got took. Live and learn i guess Thanks for any help or suggestions with the tach.
