My tacho stopped dead the other day aswellas I was driving . It used to come
back on every now and then especially when accelerating/decelerating. This
happened together with the fuel gauge
going dead. I was pretty stumped for a while but I think I traced it back to
the fusebox. I could find absolutely nothing else! I sprayed some contact
cleaner on the spades and the fuse and wiggled them a bit. The problem
hasn't resurfaced.
