While out riding today I noticed my tachometer on my M2 was "bouncing". The needle that reads RPM's was pretty much just bouncing around and not reading accurately at all. It seemed to settle down a little bit the more I rode. It didn't bounce as much, but it wasn't reading properly either. Any idea what this might be causing this? |

Loose instrument panel ground? Loose wire to the ignition system? There's only four wires into a tach - signal, ground, lighting, and lighting ground. I'd have to check a manual to see if the signal comes from the pickup on the cam, or from the ignition module...but if it's running without hiccups, I'd lean towards a loose ground somewhere. |

I knew it must have something to do with a loose or chaffed wire somewhere. I'll have to look into it when I get some free time. Thanx! |
